Loosing transmission fluid, can see it dripping!!

Where are all the possible locations on a 700r4 where fluid can leak. I'm gessing the pan, or the fittings where the tubes from the trans cooler and radiator go in. Where else might I check? Please help I lost a quart today driving around all day.

Check where the dipstick tube goes into the casing. There's a rubber cylinder o-ring seal that goes there. And check to see if your pan is warped. I've had both of these things happen to me before.

it can also leak at the pump seal between the torque converter / pump junction.

also, check the tailshaft seal where the yoke goes in. i've had to replace that one.
