leak

it seems i have 2 leaks one bad one not so bad. The bad one seems to be leaking from this thing here(pictured bellow) so what seal could i need to replace this, i just went through a quart in 24 hours it seams to be leaking out of this hole and the not so bd one is leaking from some where above the starter yet i don't think its the valve seal cuz i just replaced that 2 or 3 months ago

the thing pictured is in between the oil pan and transmission pan

Re: leak

if its leaking in there it is more then likely the rear main seal if its oil. above the starter could be intake gasket valve, cover gasket, or oil pressure switch.

Re: leak

That thing between the oil and tranny pan is just a dirt cover for the torque converter. You can pull it off and look, there's no seal for it. Just never drive in and kind of dirty situation without it or your tranny front seal as well as engine main seal will be shots in about 20 seconds, don't ask how I know...lol
