5r55e leaking!

Finally found the source of my trans leak just dont know what to call it or where to buy one. Have the one I'm missing circled in the pic. Any reason why it would have come out?

That is a anchor for low/reverse band. Can’t recall seeing one of those missing on that model transmission. See it a lot on vehicles used for plowing wher they are in and out of reverse more than a normal application. Did you happen to have the vehicle stuck at some time and rocking it with drive and reverse? Can’t buy the part as its part of the case. May try a transmission shop to see if they have a case core that they could knock out for you. Next problem is installing it and getting it to stay in place. Is transmission still Installed?

It actually happened on the express way. The trans is still in the truck. Will be pulling the exhaust tomorrow so it'll be more accessible and hopefully fixed

Going to almost be impossible while in the vehicle. It’s a part that’s never supposed to come out. It is put in placedand swedged in place. You will have to make it secure or it will push right back out after the band slaps it a few times. Good luck.
