it only leaks if i make a hard left turn. it looks like its coming from a hole underneath the 2 coolant lines. can anyone help me? the transmission is a th350c
 
Besides the dipstick tube I believe the only hole directly under the cooler lines is for where the kickdown cable goes. You might need a new seal or cable but I'm not sure if a th350c even has the cable as I've never owned one, but I believe they do. If you have one check that otherwise it might be the dipstick tube. I've switched all my tubes from the o-ring seal to the lip seal style and haven't had any leaks since the change.
 
ttheres a tube that looks like a vacuum line but its harder, there seems to be a nut on the end right by the hole and its disconnected...i can pull the black tube back and forth and i can feel a cable going into where the tube is

That sounds like your kick down cable and may explain why you were having shifting problems as well if it is not secured to the transmission. Does the hard plastic end going into the transmission look like the end on here?

hunk it is my kickdown cable but I fixed the shifting problem, got a new vacuum hose. but I think the bracket for the kickdown cable came out. how can I fix this
 
They usually just bolt onto the case of the transmission. If the bolt is gone then you just need to put a new bolt in there. Or is the plastic tube going into the transmission broke?
