If you can't locate the leak, you need to recreate it. Maybe refill the box and run it momentarily. I don't know enough about autos to say what the proper process is though. I assume the torque convertor is going to be empty if all the fluid has been pumped out. Maybe someone can give some input here?
Cheers for the help mate i got the car back on the road and running like a beauty again appreciate the help

I doubt that it is but it might be dripping down onto the crossmember above the pipe. Once it's dry, look for oily residue or areas that still look wet from the oil.

My money is the pipe having a split at that join in the picture (probably a barb join). It should be pretty easy to replace the pipe yourself and just in case the oil has become contaminated, I think a complete transmission oil and filter change might be a good idea. It is a little messy of a driveway job but it could save you lots of $.
Was nothing major got it fixed and running cheers for the information
