'97 Transmission Leak

[cherrington]

It appears to be leaking directly from the forward most part of the tranny pan, and is dripping down onto the cat (causing smoke and bad fumes)

I looked on rockauto and found these part numbers...

WIX Part # 58841 More Info {Transmission Filter #FT1087A} 4WD

ACDELCO Part # TF302 More Info {#25313823}
FILTER KIT,A/TRNS FLUID 14 HOLES, DEEP PAN; 4R70W TRANS, 4 SPEED

MOTORCRAFT Part # FT103 More Info {#3Z9F593DA, F5TZ7A098B}
4WD; Trans. code 5R55E


its a 4 speed auto. How do I know which I need. And those are the filters... do the tranny's not have a gasket? Or did I just manage to miss that somewhere?
