What can be leaking????...

86 Bronco II 4x4 with automatic trans.. I had trans fulid leaking from the inspection plate..people told me it was the front pump seal..i replaced that..took it for a test drive..still leaking from bottom of inspection cover..so i spent 6hrs today..pulled the trans..removed front main seal, cleaned area, put new seal back in with some RTV sealent and installed a new torque convertor this time..checked the tightness of all the bell housing bolts..they are good..still have yet to fill the trans and test drive it..but my question..

..If it still leaks..what should i do next?

Thanks for any suggestions.

look for a crack in the housing, pump area, flipped seal from to much pressure. Just going at it basically, I am not a transmission person. Broken Wire
