Well it is possible it is the shifter seal, they can leak. Did you change the type of oil you use as in conventional to synthetic? It may be possible that the leak was over coming the buildup of sludge and a change in oil may have cleaned it out and now it leaks.

Easy thing to do is clean the area well and let it dry.
If it only leaks while the engine is running, start the bike and watch the area closely.
