I would go to a trans specialist, that sounds about what I got mine done for.

Mate be sure to check the rear bush,they are usually worn hence causing the seal to leak.

they are pretty easy to do around 1/2 hr labour plus the seal is all id pay...make sure they use a genuine ford seal they are better (have a tripple edge rubber on them) also check that the extension housing gasket isnt leaking as well.....with a seal gasket and bush youd be lookn at around 1 to 2 hrs labour no more and parts
