Transmission problem
1980 Chevy Malibu V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I need to know where the pickup tube is located on my transmission. I recently bought this car from a friend who told me that it came off while when he parked and shut the vehicle off at a gas station. He had it towed home to prevent any further damage to the transmission. Is this an easy fix? and should i look for further problems?

Your fluid is picked up through filter inside the pan. No way it would fall off.
