Leaking Transmission Case

Anyone else have this type of slow leak at the transmission case of their hybrid? It is about a teaspoon of fluid a day.

Ugh...I can only imagine how expensive this will be to fix once the leak gets really bad. I'm guessing the only fix is pull transmission, separate case, and reseal OR replace with used transmission? Personally, I wouldn't be up for this task...too tall an order for me.

Just curious if anyone else experience this type of leak and what have you done?

1. Do you actually have a hybrid?
2. transmission fluid is RED. This is normal yellowOIL in your picture.
3. my gut tells me you have oil leak from above, normally, valve cover gasket.
Unless you are referring to this, a kind of reddish stain:

So do us all favour:
confirm you have hybrid
get an exploded view of where the leak is, as there's no telling, if it's on the bottom or side.OK?
Looking at your pic, it's regular engine oil all over everywhere on the case. Not ATF.
