Tom,
Majority of the time , the trans fluid leak around the Final drive comes
from the trans fill tube that enters into the Final drive.
As the torque converter leaks down, the trans level jumps up about 2" and
the O rig on the tube leaks.
Solution to that is to wipe down both sides of the tube and hole and coat
sealent and bolt it down.
There is a small weeping hole in the same area that will leak either fluid
(trans/ Final ) we see more of it as the final drive pion seals fail.
