Cool Tranny Leak

I had my truck parked downhill on a slight decline (maybe 5 degrees) and had a leak coming from just in front on the tranny pan. Black cover with drip hole. When the truck is parked on flat ground or any incline the truck does not leak. Any suggestions what may be causing this or a way to fix?

I was going to try the Lucas oil tranny fluid - supposed to help with older tranny's and also has some stop leak to it.

I bet it is your fuel pump, not your transmission. Diesel leaks down onto the top of the transmission when level, then rolls down the bell housing when on an incline or decline.
