I've had no issues since the repair was done April of 2005 at 64,000 miles (I currently have 89,500 miles on the vehicle).

From your photos and now your statement that the fluid is NOT red I'm 100% sure it's the torque converter radial seal. Engine oil would be relatively thick and usually blackish unless recently changed. The only red fluid in the engine compartment is in the power steering system which uses ATF Dexron that is dyed red.
