Running oil leak from transmission pan

I have never seen a leak like this, dripping like a tap, after u added coolant, looked underneath it coming from transmission pan, does not Kiki like transmission fluid, looks like a mixture of oil and water, dripping, could this be the pan gasket or o rings somewhere inside, valve body?

None
Only fluid that can come from or around the bottom of the tranny pan is AFT. No other fluid is routed through or around the transmission, save the fuel line.
You need to identify what the fluid is, then you need to identify where its coming from.

It would also help if you debriefed the board on the history of your vehicle. Previous work done, current faults and symptoms, etc.
