There is foam between the sump and gear box. It is held in place by the support brackets that bolt to the engine block and bell housing. If you remove the support brackets this foam/rubber can removed easily.

Yes. Nissannewby is right again.
I just had another quick look and remembered a while ago it was a bit soaked with oil, courtesy of oil filter change . And I assumed it was my rear main seal. Bit it was just the spongy material which absorbed a bit of that oil.
