Changed my oil today and found a leak

Took the pan off under the car (super easy btw- went back on just as easy) and to my surprise a nice thick mess of tyranny fluid. Looked to be coming down the side of the tranny pan. Right about where the lines go in for what I believe to be the tranny cooler??

Wasn't a ton. But enough that I should bring it in.

If it wasnt for the oil change I would have never known there was a leak. I like the aerodynamics idea of the cover under the car but it kinda hides things like the good old oil spot in the garage to let you know your car had a leak.

Anyone else seen this? Thoughts on what's its from? Fixes?

Really dont know without pics. I have changed my oil once, and inspecting the under pan makes sense and the stuff above it too. I would just take it in to the dealer and let them DEAL with it....
