A leaking oil seal of the shafts going into the torque converter is a known issue, this seal is available separately. The transmission must be removed for replacement.

.... is there a coolant smell coming from the engine bay ? Could be coolant fluid from busted plastic coolant pipes/T´s --- the coolant fluid is also red (and ´oily´ ) .... That or transmission seal....

Either the seal on the Torque converter is leaking or the transmission input shaft seal is leaking. If you had the coolant pipes leak in the past, the antifreeze is somewhat corrosive and could have destroyed one of the two mentioned seals/O-rings.

There are different types of radial shaft seal, depending on the transmission number. Go to the dealer with the indification #, VIN, transmission, engine to be sure.
