Any info would be really appreciated. I just hope I do not have to lower the transmission!
It is likely the shift selector rod seal.

See figures 36, 37, 38, 39

I have done this on the bench and it isn't too bad. Best to pry out the old seal and install a new one. But many people just drive the new seal in atop the old one.
