Thanks Lloyd. Of course, you're right about the gasket. Given the nature and the behavior of the leak, it couldn't be anything else. As long as the temporary fix works though, I'm gonna leave the tranny in the car until something more major prompts me to pull it. I don't think I can get the two long bolts out of the cover with the trans in the car due to the proximity to the frame rails. Correct?
I will be sure to replace the cover gasket next time the box is out. I promise!
