<VV> PG leak

Sounds like the torque converter leaks down, fills the pan, and pushes fluid 
into the shift cable.  The covering for the shift cable is likely 
compromised at some point - where the leak is.

There IS a fix for this if you find my analysis to be correct.

I have a PG leak I cannot find. It is not the pan as a new gasket is 
installed, the seal for the shift cable is new, the seal for the TV lever is 
new, the gasket between the PG and the Differential is new.

If I carefully clean the PG with brake cleaner and use the dry finger test, 
there is no evidence of fluid at the TV lever, or at the shift cable area or 
the pan gasket.

It will leak a large puddle in about a week of just siting in the garage. It 
seems to leak from somewhere to the rear of the pan, but above it.

I am rally stumped. Any suggestions?
