Sounds like your torque converter seal is leaking.

no dont ever use any leak stop additive..radiator..transmission..oil...and my favorite head gasket stop leak...they are all crap...the tranny has to come out for that so you looking probly between 400 and 500 but the seal is like 10 bucks!!...labor is expensive
