I have a leak which it not from the pan but from above where a solenoid is bolted to the transmission. So I have been told. Need a schematic so that I know what and where it is that i am either sealing or installing a gasket. 3.0 l motor.

Looks like the solenoid has a cover. How does that come off? Hard to see. Are there bolts at the top of the cover that i can't see?
Then does the solenoid simply unbolt too with maybe a wire or two attached?
Thanks!

If there's no bolt holding it on you probably have to drop the tranny and go from the inside-
