Default 4l60e bellhousing filling up with tranny fluid!!!

my bellhousing is collecting fluid and coming out the inspection hole. does anyone know what needs to be replaced? keep in mind the bellhousing LEAKS when sitting and when running. the car sat in the driveway and leaked a good 5" diameter circle. i pulled the transmission out last night and cleaned all the fluid....

here is what she looks like right now. im thinking the convertor seal "part number 3227" made my timken?

I would replace the front seal and pump oring along with bolt washers. I would als inspect the converter hub for cracks or wear

do you happen to know part numbers for the front seal and pump oring? i dont see how the pump would be leaking unless under pressure. anyway, i would rather get everything done now instead of taking the tranny back out next weekend. some people say to replace the pushing behind the pump so if anyone knows that part number as well it would be great!

While you have the trans out you should also check the pump bushing & replace if needed.Did you shim the converter properly?1/16 to 1/8
