Is the tranny leaking? Intake, and head gaskets are all that is left.

I discovered some fresh oil around the cork gasket on the tranny, so far the head gaskets and intake seem fine but might have a small leak on the front of the intake. I'm going to see how it runs for awhile before I decide if I'm going to pull the motor..

Time for me to go...ttyl
