It really does not matter how high the level gets with the engine off, it needs to be checked when the engine is running, warmed up, and in park or neutral. With the engine off it will read above full on the dip stick.

Clean it up really well. Blow a light coating ofcorn starch or baking powder in the are you think is leaking. Then follow it up stream. Once you figure it out ring it off. The normal leak areas are pan, linkage rod, modulator, electrical connector, or dip stick. On rare occasions the breather tube on top.
