The bolts that are missing should not cause a problem but they should be replaced as soon as possible just in case. The leak between the engine and transmission can be oil from the engine. It could potentially be a rear main seal leak, oil pan leak, or a transmission front seal leak if the fluid is transmission fluid. If you’re unable to pinpoint it yourself, consider YourMechanic, as a certified technician can come to your home or office to diagnose the leak firsthand for an accurate repair.
