tranny leak-where is it?

[treed2@u.washington.edu (T. Reed)]

Rick,

Really? Is the green piece a seal carrier or a seal? It can't be the drive
flange seal because that fits inside the green piece and is a lot smaller
diameter. I've changed both of mine and I always just assumed having one
green side was normal.
