From the looks of all the black gunk I'd say oil, pretty sure if it was tranny fluid it would be more reddish.

It is oil for sure.

Can you get some more pictures up? I think I can tell you where it might be coming from.

I uploaded 3 more pics in my album. This time I cleaned the bottom, leak is coming from lower part of engine pan cover, or transmission to engine bolts?? Thanks for your time.

Looks to be the rear main seal, mines doing it too. Just haven't had the time to pull the trans and fix it yet.
