Default oil leak

i just got my camaro back from the dealer after having to have the transmission replaced from a road hazard about a month back and now the car is leaking oil. it's all over the transmission case,etc. i'm planning on calling the dealership back on monday and asking them about it but i'd like to try and do something about it before then. any suggestions?

thanks
will

It sounds like it could be coming from your rear main seal. Is it getting into your bellhousing? If it is you probably shouldn't drive it until you figure it out.

My name is Kris. I have only passed through Autosound once or twice but I haven't stopped since I don't know anybody.

I would probably still be on the stock block too if I was putting down numbers like you are. I think 462rwhp is amazing out of a 346, hell you are close to my numbers with half of the money invested. I think we are deffinitely going to meet up with guys on Saturday but I am going to have a car load to carry around. The women don't want to left at home so they are coming with us.
