The converter is keyed at the end. The keys will fit into the front pump and you will hear it clunk into position. As far as the leak, chances are the seal, but make sure the converter (where the seal rides) isn't worn or damaged. Otherwise, you will be removing the trans again and starting over. If it is worn or damaged, replace it.
