Oil Leak ?

[topdown]

CLK 320. conv.

I noticed after not using the car for 10 days in October that there was small patch of oil on the garage floor.
Had a look underneath and the was some oil - transmission oil on the bottom of the gear box pan.
I cleaned it up and gave the car a good run and checked every day but no more drips.
Over Xmas did not use the car again for 4days and yep the drip is back.
Is there a seal problem or is the gearbox perhaps over filled?
Car has done 23,000 miles.

Any info would be appreciated
