I reversed out of a steep area that resulted in me slamming bottom of rear end which caused my transmission fluid to leak out where the transmission connects to the motor. I've removed the transmission, yet I am lost for what to check or change. I imagine I blew a seal or something.

Unless this is a leak from the case being cracked I would have to assume it is the torque converter seal that is between the converter and input shaft. I attached the process so you can see where this is located.

Let me know if you find it. If not, can you get a picture of where you feel the leak is coming from and we can take it from there?
