The return line. It has rubbed against the transmission and punctured a hole on the line.

since that's a no pressure line you could just cut it where th hole is and insert some rubber gas line as a fix.

It's not that easy, the hole is above the transmission and I have no room. It seems like there is pressure because everytime I turn the key on, it starts to leak.

oh, so not easy is the problem.and there is no pressure to speak of, just enough to get it back to tank. how about rerouting line so it dont go over trans? or undo some mounts and lower trans a little?
