Default stupid question inside

what's the big 2 inch or so circular plug looking thing on the passenger side of the tranny. I think fluid maybe leaking out of there on mine. Any ideas?

The part in question should be the band servo and if it is leaking it has an o-ring on it . That's the easy part , getting it out is the fun pat , but not impossible jusy seems that way in the vehicle !!!!!!!!!!!

alright, I think I figure it out, it looks like my new rebuilt tranny had the old pan gasket left on it because I let the car down off the jack and the fluid just poured out from the front of the pan out of gasket area. I can feel a tear in the part of the gasket sticking out of the pan. Should just be a simple gasket, filter swap hopefully.
