Default Need tranny help!!!!

My car is leaking ATF fluid from where the DS meets the tranny and it appears that my DS is loose.. Of course the DS sits in that "hole" with a rubber seal around it that goes into the tranny. Well the DS looks like it is coming out of the tail housing and it's dripping pretty bad when I put it in gear..

the car drives like it has a flat but i think that's due to the DS coming loose. what should i do now??

this all occurred after i topped out my car and drove at speed for a little bit, then i noticed a light cloud of smoke in my rearview. I pulled over and ATF fluid was ALL OVER THE PLACE and soaked my undercarriage. My first thought was I had blown my tranny or that the fluid got too hot and came out... Figured out this is clearly not the case.

Well I took pics of all this crap in case someone wants/needs to see what the hell i'm talking about...

any help is greatly appreciated. thanks!

i now determined that the leak is coming from where the ds meets the tranny and it appears that my ds is loose and is coming slightly out of the tail housing...
