300SDL Transmission Leak

Car was sitting for a few days and noticed a large oil slick under the car. About 1/2 quart of trans fluid leaked out. Degreased trans and looks like fluid is leaking somewhere around rear mount. It's dripping down the back of the mount. Any ideas? Rear seal?

Could be but look also at the kickdown solenoid just beside the yoke.

I got under with a light and it appears to be leaking from the rear seal. How hard is this to replace? Can it be done without removing the trans?

Here is a closer view of the leak. It's leaking pretty bad. Parked on an incline.
