Default Something missing from transmission??

First off hello to All, and thank you in advance....
I recently was given a 1987 Chevy Blazer, as a generous gift to help me get to and from my new job. It is a four speed and runs great, but yesterday I was heading home and the clutch totally went out. I immediately checked the clutch fluid and it was now bone dry. So I walked a mile or so to a gas station and bought new fluid... Upon filling it up, it again went bone dry as quick as possible. So I climbed under the Blazer and found that a piece had fallen off. It looks like perhaps a cover to help keep the fluid I?!?! Again I apologize for not being near as smart as you guys, but I am including the pic with the hopes of solving this issue. Again thank you so VERY MUCH. I cannot wait to fix this tank up and enjoy the hell out of it!! Have a good day, Hunter http://s33.photobucket.com/user/jimmyglance/media/Mobile%20Uploads/Attach0_zps71ae5a0a.jpg.html

Looks like the bell housing cover for the clutch fork is missing. It helps keep the crud out of the clutch. The fluid is probably coming out of the slave cylinder.

likely the clutch slave cylinder especially if the vehicle has sat for a bit they tend to crap out in that situation
The hydraulic clutch system is pretty basic , look for the wet from the leak and you will find the part that needs to be replaced
Not sure why anyone would remove that cover and leave it off
