Transmission Leak {slight}

Trying to trace a small tranny leak on my 85 300TDT. Just did a complete fluid/filter change and now I'm seeing about 3 tablespoons of fluid on the garage floor after sitting all night. I cleaned everything up to help trace the leak and it seems to be coming from the area directly in front of the pan. There is an aluminum housing there that has several rectangular holes and one square hole in it. The fluid is dripping from these holes. I didnt do the fluid/filter change so dont know what this is called. I'm thinking that maybe the torque converter is up in there and the fluid might be leaking from the drain plug/copper seal?? Does this sound right?
Also checked the Bowden cable and it is slightly wet around the housing but not enough to drip the amount on the floor. I have a new Bowden and seal ordered anyway because mine is broken at the valve cover.
Thanks
John
