Check the cylinders first.. could be something as daft as a sticking slave cylinder.

For the leak, check that the gearbox breather pipes and fittings are clear... there are 2.

There is a seal on the output of the gearbox and the input to the transfer box.   The complete assembly is heavy, and it doesn't add too much to the job to split the boxes if you are under there.
