W126 common tranny leak areas?

On my 85 380SE, I have had a bit of a tranny "seep." After 8 months of driving I noticed some erratic behavior, so I checked the level and it was low. So I filled it up, about 3/4 quart, and all is well.

With the cold weather, I have been idling the car for about 5 or 10 minutes before getting in (to generate heat). I now notice a very small seep spot on my driveway. Either the seep is getting worse, or sitting in one spot allow the seep to accumulate. Either way, it needs to be fixed. When I have a free moment I'd like to crawl under there to figure out where it's coming from.

Can anyone tell me what the common tranny leak areas are so I know where to look?

TIA
