Default Mysterious Leak

Well here is the deal. I have some leak coming out of the slot on the bell housing.

Its not the rear main seal, because I don't see any residue that way.

It isn't my hydraulics like I had originally thought, because there is not residue on the slave or speed bleeder connection.

It also doesn't seem like the input shaft seal either. It has to be on the trans side of the bell housing because you can visibly see the fluid chillin' out at the bottom of the trans.

Thoughts?

BTW monster clutches rewal!

Its weird. I know. Because the fluid is brown and not red like tranny fluid.

Its not ATF so its got to be motor oil or dirty hydraulic fluid.
