The torque converter is closer to the engine, those are clutch packs, planetaries and the rest of the transmission internals. The torque converter is in the bellhousing, closer to the engine from what's in your pictures. There's probably a dust shield that needs to be removed to see the torque converter and flexplate.
Do these transmissions not use a valve body anymore?

leakage from dust plate
I put 12 and 1/2 quarts in and no leaks but a slight drip from the dust cover plate and then i went to drive off and it sprayed from there according to my wife who was watching; luckily it didn't lose to much. The only cause of this would be that I did not tighten the drain plug on the torque converter enough correct?
