7998,

There is a gasket on the drivers side of the SM420 4 speed transmission, with if I remember correctly 6 bolts. The gasket needs sealant on it. I use Permatex Copper Spray-A-Gasket on the paper gasket and #2 Permatex Form-A Gasket o the bolts. that should stop your leak. You might just want to check to make sure the bolts are tight...1/4 turn until tight. Don't distort the plate.
