M6 T56 6 Speed Transmission Leak.

Recent Transmission fluid on the ground may be related to this: About a week ago while doing a modified U-Turn I dropped the clutch pretty hard while in reverse. Of course I forgot about the traction switch and instead of tire spin I got a strong/ solid pulsing vibration and "Low Trac" light stayed on untill next restart.

Over the last week I have been leaking trans fluid on the pavement where I park, last night onto the Y-pipe and smoke. No mechanical change in operation in forward or reverse with the transmission. Been running great.

My questions are: What could be causing this? Are there any seals that I should replace? I have heard of the vent tubes blowing fluid at high RPM, can this be my cause? .......just looking for a fix.
