Sounds suspiciously like your ring gear machined a hole in your case giving 
you one of VW's high tech self-wetting clutches :)   Unfortunately, the only 
way to be sure is to pull it out.  If the oil comes out as fast as you put it 
in, that's most likely it.  
Good luck.  
It could also be any of the seals inside around the input shaft or the 
release rod, but those are usually slow steady leaks.
