did you just smear it on the outside or did you have to take it off and apply it?

You're supposed to remove the cover to create a gasket.

The inspection plate was removed and done properly, and i didn't want to pull apart the transmission for the other little spot and couldn't tell if that was the issue. So for the bottom part I had just done a couple thin layers over that connection area, trying to force it into any cracks with a card scraper. There was no visible leaking after that for over a year, then I sold it. Never heard he had any issues with it.
