Gov lever adjustment is done from the rear of the pump. When he did the springs, he may have come from the side, in which there is a large plug on the rear drivers side of the pump that may be leaking.

And if he went through the top it could be the AFC leaking.

When I first got my truck I thought the IP was leaking but I found it was the O ring on the oild dipstick above the IP. It leaks down on the pump and the oil works its way around the pump.

There's also an oil feed line I believe coming to the top rear of the AFC housing.
