That is either an Engine rear main seal or the transmission oil seal. Most likely it will be the engine oil seal if the fluid is black and not reddish. Unfortunately the only cure for that is to pull the transmission and replace the rear oil seal on the engine. Not an easy task. Please do not fall for the additives that are sold everywhere stating they will fix the problem. 9 times out of 10 they only work for a little while and than you end up with a blown engine. Best to fix the problem rather than put a bandaid on it.
If its dark color it is likely rear main seal on engine. If it is red color it is front seal on transmission. check fluid levels, overfilling engine oil or transmission fluid can cause this also. both require major removal of tyranny etc. If you never done this get qualified help. .

Those are your transmission cooling lines. Buy them and replace them.
When you install them, take your time...don't be in a rush.
SOURCE: Front Main Seal is blown on the Transmission
You have to remove the transmission, remove the torque converter to access the seal. Most likely the bushing behind the seal is worn out allowing fluid to leak past the seal. After the trans. is out, take it to a trans. shop. It requires a special tool to change the bushing. Seems like a bunch of work for $10.00 in parts. The rear main seal requires pulling the pan to access it. When the trans. is out, this is the time to replace the rear main seal on the engine.

Re-torque the pan bolts. If that doen't help then may just give it a transmission oil anf filter change. Would not hurt to service it if your going to keep it longer then the times your going to clean up the oil satins on the drive way. Good luck

Most transissions front leak is the front seal but it can also be the pump gasket over flow expelling fluid.To save money you should first change the filter. Them if it still leaks pull the trany and pull the front pump and change the gaskets and seals. If this does not fix it then you should seek professional help.
