Tranny Leak Suggestions

I put my new trans in and have about 300 miles on it and noticed that the trans is leaking from the bell housing. I took the trans to a local reputable shop that has done work for me before. He pulls the trans and the convertor is bone dry (so we believe the leak is not from there) and the bell housing only has fluid in the bottom and not all around. He inspects all the seals, checks the pump cover for hair line cracks and says everything is perfect. He buttons everything back up and it still leaks.

Any suggestions???

Its a transmission shop, they should be able to handle it. Leaks aren't hard to figure out.

Trans is fine. There was a grease drip on the bottom of the bell housing. I just got around to jacking the darn thing up last night.
