Transmission leak?

jooobi3 · 04-02-2019, 01:14 PM

I was underneath the car the other day I noticed a leak underneath what looks like the transmission was attached to. Can anyone body help me pin point what exactly is going on here? Thank you

It looks like an engine oil leak, oil looks dark.

Yeah I have no clue I was in a hurry so I just took some pictures. I didn't have time to investigate where it was coming from.

Oil pan gasket, that is engine oil

Spray it down with foamy engine brite, hose it off, and clean it up. Drive for a day or two and check again.
