T5 Leaking on a 1987 5.0L

T5 bellhousing is covered in fluid as well as both sides of the
exhaust and both cats (hot cats cause the tranny fluid to smoke like
crazy).
Checked the tranny fluid level and all is well so it doesn't appear to
be a seal (plus the whole thing is covered in fluid). Is there a
relief valve on the top ? ... I really need a hoist !
Engine is putting out over 400 ftlbs so I expect it to break soon
anyway, even though some people say they are running 600 hp on their
t5s.

There is a vent on the top. If you overfilled it,
the fluid would come out there.
However, since it's all over the bellhousing, are
you sure it's trans fluid? It would have come out the
vent and spray foreward while you're driving.
