gasket is gone. get flange sealant outta motor factors. take off whatever the bolts are holding on. clean away old gasket. apply the sealant evenly around whatever you had to take off, bolt back on and it should seal alright again

Might be just the bolts are coming loose, I've seen this on briggs engines. Try just tightening them up and see if it stops the leak before you go dismantling everything.
