Front pump seal could be old and tired, or the leak could be a sign of bushing wear.

However, before removing the trans for anything, I'd drain it (including the converter) and refill with Type F or FA fluid and see if that helps alleviate the slipping. (By "drive", I assume you mean high range, with selector in "H" position.)
