i have a leak on my trans, from here, where can i get a gasket for this ??

That looks like a 65 or earlier park cable housing. I think that gasket is included in the universal gasket kits....(i could go look), but i dont know of a source for individual gaskets other than pan gaskets.
Are you sure its not the cable??
 
cable look ok, but its leaking good, pan, and some others , what is that part have have a pic of ??

It's called the Parking lock cable adapter cover.

I'd clean it good with parts cleaner and double check where the leak is coming from. It's a process to remove it as in detaching the cable from inside, proper adjustment when installing it.

I made my own gasket from gasket material, hollow punches, razor blade.

The factory gasket is pretty thin. The housings aren't perfectly flat either. I make my own gaskets from .060 Felpro blue paper. Add a new o-ring on the cable. Also heat shrink with glue over the cable crimp.

I don't believe the early 727 with the rear pump had that like the newer trans.
They absolutely do.... The early 904 captured it inside the tailhousing but the 727's leak there, just sealed one up a few months ago... After he'd replaced everything around it....
 
when I hear of a trans leak nowadays, I just figure someone botched the surgery

So this bolt serves double duty as a tail shaft housing bolt and a rear band anchor pin? Has a O-ring on it? Can you remove it without removing the pan and valve body?
