that sounds like it's leaking from the transmission pan,if so that's not a big deal.there is a gasket that goes between the pan and the trans,it costs like 15-20 bucks for the kit with a new filter,which you'll want to replace when the pan is off.you should be able to get that done at a shop for a couple hundred or less.

I would recommend against putting sealer in it,it usually doesn't work and cause more problems than it fixes.your just going to need to replace the gasket.
