was driving home from work today when i shifted into fourth gear and the engine just reved up but i had no power. i tried every gear and it was the same. i believe the car is shifting into gear but the clutch is not engauging. when i got home (had to coast and push the car a block) i noticed a leak it dripped into a fist sized puddle and my gut reaction was i blew the mail oil seal and the clutch was now slick with oil. when i rolled the car back a few hours later the fluid looks like oil/water mix. this frightened me so i immediately checked oil and coolant levels. both normal/safe and no mixing. did i blow my oil seal? any ideas?

thanks.
 
hydrolic fluid is normal and any difference in clutch pressure is unnoticable.
