Haven't been able to get a real good look at it yet, but the bottom of my transmission is damp with fluid. Seems to be coming out somewhere just above the transmission fluid temp sensor. (which i think is where the line enters, still trying to find a good diagram)

The volume of fluid isn't enough to drip on the ground when parked so I'm hoping it's a leaky ring and is holding fluid back when the pressure is off. Before i go pulling my battery + tray out or whatever else may be in the way, am i looking at o-rings or likely new lines?

The outlet line is sealed with a o-ring, that could be all it is, or the temp sensor itself. I would suggest a good cleaning and de-greasing first to see where it is really coming from.
