Yup, there is round seal cheap fix. only hard part is bolt that holds dipstick tp block. Been in for awhile or when replaced some knucklehead used a impact gun.

there is a O-ring on the end of the tube that presses down into the tranny housing, if you can unbolt it, either replace the tube (whcih has new O-ring) or pull tube and replace ring.

Question 98 Mustang GT 4.6L auto trans fill tube leak

Is there an easier way to pull the trans fill tube to replace either with new tube or repair with new O ring without removing H pipe and O2 sensors underneath and auto trans pan?
