It finally got worse last few loads and so I removed the agitator and see that there has been an oil leak underneath it. I would like to try to fix it if that part(s) would not add up too much $. I am curious if it is just a broken seal or?? I have taken pictures if anyone would have an idea of what would need to be fixed. Thank you smorberg attached the following image(s):

It is an inexpensive part, GE WH02X10383 Seal Tub - AppliancePartsPros.com and there is a nice video that shows you how to change it out. If the mode shifter is damaged by dripping water though this will not be a long term fix.
