Leaky Garrard 301?

I have an oil-bearing Garrard 301 that has been running flawlessly since its' last tuneup 6 months ago.
Recently I noticed significant amounts of oil accumulating on the side of the platter, coming from below.
No wow or flutter.
The platter is not meant to be lifted off by a non-tech (me) and the bottom is enclosed.
Should I be worried? Am I looking at a new bearing?
