What is leaking out of the weep hole, motor oil or transmission oil?

When I overfilled my LT this past year it weeped out the vent in the top of the tranny, nothing came out the drain hole in the bottom of the tranny.  While your in there you may want to check the vent on the top, if it's plugged that is what caused you to blow oil out of your tranny seal. I had just replaced all of my seals prior to overfilling so mine were in excellent condition.

All I can say is that the more I work on my brick and learn about it, the more attached to it I become. It's a labor of love -- get used to it :-)
