Coolant Leak P#17101439110

I have a coolant leak and it appears that it is coming from the mounting plate. At first I thought it might be the xrings, but after sticking my phone in there for a better look it seems that the coolant is coming out of the plastic housing which is part number 17101439110. I attached a few pics for clarification.

Can anyone that has replaced this part shed some light on thier experience?

Probably transmission's heat exchanger X-rings are leaking.
Had that leak before.

Here's another pic where you can see the coolant coming down the side of one of the inlets.

We'll turns out it was the mounting plate. Upon removal, one of the upper outlets broke off in the hose. I replaced all xrings too. Took about an hour.

Mounting plate leak

I have the exact same leak.

Did you change from underneath or from above, and did you have to remove the fan and coolant?

Any feed back would be great on the process?

Thanks

Teekid

Most of the repair was done from the bottom. You'll need to pull the undercover off. Most all of the coolant was lost. This is very easy fix and should take about an hour.
