Oil leaking from shift unit?

The shift unit screw came loose (big thumb screw) and when I went to tighten it back I noticed a load of oil on and around it. I changed the oil in the unit five months ago but I don’t see any oil near the screw through which you change the oil.

Any ideas what’s up?

So I just bought a used Rohloff and thought I'd asked all the right questions, but when it came time to mount it, it wouldn't fit. It's a threaded axle style, but it's too wide for my QR frame.

Do I need to switch out the endcaps or something? It doesn't seem like a fatbike model, and waiting for an answer from the seller as to what frame it came off of. Thanks in advance for any help.

Lockring question

So apparently the lockring tool for Bosch gen 2 ebikes also fits the Rohloff lockring and can be found much cheaper than the Rohloff tool. But I wonder if the lockrings also share the same thread - can I use a Bosch gen 2 lockring on my Rohloff hub? They're a bit easier to find.
