Help!

Ok I have been in ****ing car hell for the last five years while I have hit every possible ****ing obstacle I think exists while I put my car back together.

In the last month I have decided that the car must be finished and I have been spending every night in the garage. I am just days away from when I wanted to start the car, have finished up everything else and so I am making final easy preparations, filling fluids and such.

Tonight I added 6qts of ATF to the transmission (700r4), carefully looking for leaks after everyone and after the last one I heard a noise under the car. On the passenger side of the trans I had $36 worth of amsoil ATF running out onto the floor.

I have tried to best assess where the leak is coming from but am having limited success. It seems to be coming from around the TV cable, but it is tight and appears to be correctly in place. Any idea what could be leaking on this pig?

Sometimes it takes a little while for all the juices to get flowing.. I went and took a shower, got into bed and though "I bet I forgot to put the seal in there"..

Went out and pulled it apart just now and it appears to be missing the seal... Sorry for the false alarm.

Though in defense of my stupidity, I would have forgotten the seal some 2 years ago now.
