Leaks!!!!!!!!

I've got fluid leaking from 4 diff places. The ones i'm most concerned about are the trans and oil. I can't tell where the oil is leaking from(pan, valve covers, other sources?) but i do know where the trans is leaking from, at least one place it is def leaking from. The cooler lines where they connect to the trans. I recently swapped from a 700r4 to a th350, i was wondering if maybe the fittings are diff sizes and that it is not making a good seal, or if there is supposed to be an o-ring in there or what. It's really frustrating having to put in a whole quart every time i want to drive it. It is a major leak. Anyone got any suggestions?

as for your oil i had a simular problem with my bird. i couldnt find a leak but it would eat about a quart a week. look in you air filter housing and see if there is oil in there. ( this will only work if your pcv or egr is still conected) if there is you have blow by
