Default Leaking Fluid From The Bellhousing.

My Trans Am leaks out of the bellhousing, it's more like a continuous drip from the bellhousing. This only happens when the car is running or has run, and will stop after it sits a good while.

I was told that the front seal on the transmission went bad, and just to be safe, I bought another converter since I have no idea what converter is in the car. It appears to be a stock one, and I was told that it was probably the cause of the leak to begin with.

Has anyone experienced this, or does anyone know what is causing this? It only leaks out of the small opening near the bottom of the bellhousing.

Thanks to any help. I don't want to run into any problems when it gets pulled and fixed.
