Oil on the bottom of the engine doesn't necessarily mean RMS. Did I understand your suspicion correctly?
JFP is right on the money that if it's the RMS, your clutch is not long for this world..... and yes, when it's open do all three (well, I could have a long conversation about the do's or don'ts of the IMSB.... but we'll leave that alone for a moment, haha)

But I would not jump to that extreme simply because I found oil on the bottom of the motor.
