2-Speed (3-Stage) Jetaway Trans?

My 64 330 F-85 has the Jetaway trans that works flawlessly. However I have given up on chasing fluid leaks. After investing $300 to have all the gaskets and seals replaced, I still get drips. Now I just lay down puppy training pads that catch and absorb the drippings. But I am open to any suggestions that might be of help. Incidently, those training pads work great at catching any form of fluid leak and actually freshen the air in a garage. I thought of inventing a full size catch pad but I am sure that it would never fly due to EPA disposable issues. Thanks!

iirc, there was a "case porosity" issue with some of these trannys.
can you see where the fluid is leaking from?

Appears leaking from the frontal area. Around speedometer cable seal which was supposively replaced.. Should trans go out, I will go with either one of the R's or TH-350. I understand the Jetaway (Turbine 300), although limited by 2 gears, has much less para-power loss than the just mentioned. Thanks again.
