It's probably from the draft tube....wipe it off and see how fast it comes back.
If it seeps out of the little metal cover on the bottom of the bell housing after you wipe it off, it's probably the rear main seal.

You might also check #6 valve cover, sometimes they'll leak in the back and run down the trans adapter.
