i have isx 15 2250 my front gear cover gasket starts to leak ... is there any procedure how to change it. any video reference ?
Start by finding out why it started leaking? -- Recently serviced? -- or excess crank case pressure?-
When is the last time you replaced the crank case filter? - Those things can cause a lot of damage to the turbocharger and/or cause gaskets and seals for the engine to leak and fail in various places when not changed regularly.
I thought mine was starting to leak but it was the rubber plug . Put a new one in and it dried up. By the time the fan moved it around it looked a lot bigger than it was. I know that's too simple minded but it was a lot better than I had aright to expect.

Crank case filter was changed 4 months ago .... i checked pressure it was 0.1kpa ......I do oil service regurarly 14 to 15k mikes ... one thing I notice it leaks more when cold start engine as engine gets warmed up it gets less ....

That reply throws up some red flags for me.
0.1kpa < -- What is it at full engine load?
How old is engine? How much blow-by does it have?
4 months ago?-- tells me nothing of the mileage or how saturated that filter might be.
You are aware that a lot of guys do away with that filter as their engines get older for just the reasons you are having issue with. Here is one reference...
