It would be from a seal.
Rear main engine seal or front transmission seals
NO... They are 2 different seals. If the transmission seal is leaking then the fluid color will be RED that's leaking. If the rear main seal is leaking then it will be oil leaking from the engine and it won't be red.
Could be leaking transmission fluid.
There is a heater hose that goes to the left rear top side of the intake manifold and that fitting leaks engine coolant sometimes and it will run down the back of the intake around the distributor. If that fitting is not leaking then the intake manifold gasket is leaking coolant in the corners of it. REplace the intake gasket. That's all that can leak coolant on that year engine. If coolant is leaking out between the transmission and engine block then you have a freeze plug leaking in the back of the engine, between the transmission and block. Must remove the transmission and flywheel to fix it.
could be freeze plug, or intake leaking
the transmission is located on the driver's side of the engine and yes the engine has to be removed to change the transmission
If it runs empty transmission failure If it is leaking on hot part of engine or exhaust - fire risk If it is leaking near tire track loss of traction could occur
you have an issue with your transmission check to see if you have any transmission fluid leaking its either that or your engine over heated
probly or it mite be a leak in your transmission fluid pan.
Most likely it is the engine oil leaking into the front part of the transmission. There is a seal there -- the rear main seal -- that seals the end of the crankshaft where it exits the engine and connects to the flywheel or flexplate to transmit the engine power to the transmission. Engine oil is black in color, and automatic transmission fluid is largely red in color. Any dirty fluid can appear black or blackened, so it is good to clean all areas where the fluid is leaking, and then use a white paper towel to collect some of the freshly leaking fluid to determine its color.
If it's leaking transmission fluid, could be a bad pump seal. If it's leaking engine oil, could be a bad oil filter, leaking valve cover gasket, leaking intake manifold gasket, leaking oil pressure sender, leaking distributor gasket.
green fluid is engine coolant. as this is showing up near the transmission this could be leaking from the head gasket or from a freeze plug. you will just have to trace back where it is coming from remember there are freeze plugs behind transmission which are not viible while transmission is in vehicle
