Clutch slave cylinder misting

Might this be coming from the clutch area just above it as opposed to the clutch slave cylinder ie crank oil seal?
You noticed any clutch slippage?
 
Does the oil smell of gearbox? or is it pretty much odourless (LHM hydraulic oil). Mine was weeping because the bleed nipple was not seating correctly, but I had already bought a new slave cylinder so never tried to fox the leak.
 
Try cleaning the area thoroughly,spraying with talc powder and after a long ride check for obvious oil deposite in the talc.
 
Already had the idea to clean and ride. I hadn’t thought of the talc idea, though. Nice one, I’ll give it a go.
