Transmission/T-Case leak at tranny mount
Hey guys,
I don't have a good picture of my problem (crappy camera phone), but here's the deal:
I've done some searching and haven't really found anyone with a similar problem.
My transmission leaks a decent mount of oil from somewhere right above the transmission mount. I've cleaned off the bottom of the transmission and waited a day or two to see where oil built up and its not the tranny -> reduction box, its not oil coming out the shifters, its not the middle of the tranny where it separates, or any of that.
It looks like it might be coming from the reduction box -> T-Case connection, but I can't really tell because the tranny mount is in the way.
Is there a gasket that goes there? Or a seal that went bad?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Also, it only leaks when the tranny's been warm. Once it cools down it stops leaking.

I've been trying to find a good picture of my problem (since I can't take one myself and the tranny is so dirty it would be hard to point out anyway).
I pulled this off of nebraska4x4.com:
I'm getting an oil leak right where the transmission mount is. I haven't had time to take the transfer case case off the truck (and won't until I get back in town after new year's), but what are my options?
Can I pull it apart, clean it, and RTV it or is there a gasket set I can buy to fix the transfer case?
I'm not really a jury-rigging kind of guy, I'd rather do this right.
