transmission leak-source?
 
Hi all, I have a worrying leak dripping from the overload switch, just below and forward of the vacuum modulator. However, I am not convinced the leak is from this switch, but may in fact be the modulator. Before I start removing parts, I was just wondering if anyone can confirm that this switch can, in fact, leak at all? Or has anyone heard of one leaking? It's not quite cheap to replace, so before I get started....

Thanks!

Yes I had switch leaked. The fluid was leaking out of rubber boot were the wire comes out. It was about $100 or so, not cheap!
