Most Likely you have a leak from the transmission cooling tank on your radiator to the antifreeze portion of the radiator.

No, the engine is not dependent on the transmission or transmission fluid in order to start & run.
to the transmission, not the engine
my guess would be either power steering fluid or transmission fluid
this is called transmission fluid
You should never add transmission fluid to a Chevrolet 350 engine. You can add transmission fluid to the transmission through the transmission dipstick holder.
NO!!!! do not do this, oil is oil, transmission fluid is transmission fluid, and antifreeze is antifreeze, do not mix any of these, it can perminately damage your engine.
The transmission dipstick is at the center rear of the engine comparment behind the distributor. This is how you have to fill the transmission fluid as well. DO NOT overfill the transmission fluid, that is the quickest and easiest way to damage a transmission. Transmission fluid is to be checked on a warm engine, idling in park.
It calls for transmission fluid =]
No. Transmission fluid lubricates the transmission. Coolant is used by the radiator to cool the engine.
find someone with a fluid evacuater or remove the transmission pan.
transmission fluid is getting into engine in our 1984 ford f 150
It would be best not to put any transmission fluid in the engine. Really!! I'd never of guessed. I guess the clue is 'transmission and fluid' and that the fluid goes in the transmission!! the reason I put the type of engine was IOT assist someone with a realistic answer, I didn't expect for one minute the answer I received, but this is America!!
