Here is a pic of the truck and a pic of my car in my sig.
If that is indeed where the leak is coming from, there is nothing to it. With that being as old as it is, you have to make sure the pan isn't bent around the bolt holes. Take a ball peen hammer and dimple the holes outward slightly. Also, don't buy a gasket or filter kit from an auto parts store. The gaskets included with those kits are junk, and always leak. You can order a good duraprene gasket from www.transtarindustries.com , or www.wittrans.com. Again, you won't find a good gasket at any parts store. There are two flat head screws that holds the filter onto the valvebody, so that is pretty straight forward. Be sure to put a new gasket with the filter before you install it, which should come with the filter kit. I don't normally sell transmission parts, but I do keep these filter kits on hand if you have trouble getting one in an ample amount of time.
