Not looking for magic in a bottle here, just hoping I might slow this lil leak down.
Stop leak is basically brake fluid, this will swell all seals at an uncontrolled rate. Not only will the front seal swell, the clutch drum seals will too leading to stuck / dragging pistons and eventual transmission failure.

A leak related to engine off is generally pan / dip stick tube related because fluid level rises after sitting finding a leak point.
