Default input seal maybe?

i installed the servo's and hd-2 kit... everything has been fine...
i got on it a couple times on the freeway (from 75 mph)
that night i had a couple of drops of tranny fluid under the truck.
so i jacked it up cleaned everything real good, re tightened the pan bolts and no leaks over the weekend. drove to work today.... drove home.... and i looked under it... a drop of tranny fluid.... looks like it it coming from the bell housing thru the peek hole( i guess u would call it)
i have 29 k on the tranny and wonder if the input seal is a common faulty part?
im installing the verter this weekend so if i have it out... i had just rather have the seal here in case....
any opinion would be appreciated thanx.....

On newer trucks, 06+ the input seals suck. I usually do at least 3-4 a week. If it is coming from the front area, it is more then likely the front seal. I have some I will donate if you want.
