Default Oil pan leak, NOT the filter housing

Hey guys, just looking for some input on my situation.

I have an oil/tranny leak. I am 100% positive it is not the oil filter housing. I replaced every component of it, checked multiple times to see if it stop leaking (it did). Now I have a new leak. The upper block is completely dry. The only part of the engine that is oily is the oil pan and transmission.

My two questions are:
1) Is it possible to remove the oil pan from the under side of the car?
It looks like Bentley manual says yes it is. Are there any things I should watch out for? Length of procedure?
2) What would cause a leak where the tranny meets the engine? I have never touched that area since I've owned the car. And yes it is ATF fluid on the tranny, not motor oil.
