I noticed an oil accumulation on the clutch line and the rear drive... a leak or is it normal?

Yeah, I'd guess you're leaking oil from the seal on the clutch release shaft, which is blowing back to the rear drive unit while you ride.
Is it normal...no leak is "normal" (unless you're on a Hardley)

From the amount showing on the rear drive, it probably should be fixed before too long.
