Well, the fork seal might hve been stuck to the leg from being standing a while. Either way, fork seals on these are easy as pie to change. If you pull the dust cover and find rus underneath, change the seal and the dust cover together.
Oil from the final drive could be (most likely is) the gearbox output shaft seal. These can be changed without removing the gearbox, using a special tapered thread tool, you have to remove the swing-arm (or entire rear end along with the frame from the engine) to do it.
The oil under the gearbox is going to be one of the gearbox seals and will probable have contaminated your clutch. This is a big job to sort out as it involves removing and stripping down the gearbox which means removing the entire rea of the bike from the engine. I made a simpe stand to allow this which bolts to the M8 tapped holes on the underside of the engine casings.
