Manual Tranny Overflow?

Manual Tranny Overflow?
1997 F-250 4x4, 7.5 liter, Manual tranny-F6TA 7003-MA
About a year after I had my clutch replaced, I noticed tranny fluid dripping off my rear cross member. I don't drive the truck a lot and the leak subsides after sitting for a while. So I'm thinking that it is above the normal fluid level when at rest. I can't seem to locate it.
Today, I was having the oil changed at a fairly reputable brake/mechanic chain and the shop foreman mentioned the possibility of it being overfilled with an overflow port leaking. Never heard of that before, and the fluid level is about an 1/8" below the fill port.
Any input would certainly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Frank
