Update on this..
I have been back and forth to the dealer 4 times since this original post. The 4th time (today) was with a national ford service representative present.. Here is the history..
1st visit.. Tranny seals
2nd .. Tranny pump
3rd.. Filling it with liquid to find leak (did not work for whatever reason)
4th.. Ford rep, thought it was overfilled, they took some tranny fluid out, still leaked after the 50 miles they drove it
They Finally gave in to replace it with a new $6k tranny next week. The long time lapse between visits was me not having the time or availability to bring it to them(my daily driver and I use for work and play of course! ) I hope they don't mess it up or that the new tranny acts any different, as she never had a performance issue, it just leaked.
