Default oil leaking from ls tranny

help I have a crv-tec turbo with an ls tranny I have changed both axle seals in tranny because I thought that was where my leaking oil was coming from. after I changed the seals it did not leak for two and a half weeks dont know if I put seals in wrong or what also still using b16 intermediate shaft not ls do you think that could be the issue I am having, if any of you have any hints/tips on how to put in those axle seals that would be great or if you think I am having a different problem please tell me. thanks for all your help in advace...

yeah I just put the tranny in like a two months ago there was no oil in the bell housing, and the engine is not wet with oil i also oil pressure guage reads normal. I am pretty sure it is coming from the tranny. I am going to replace the seals as it worked last time but I was thinking maybe one of the seals is in crooked I know that would make it leak. do you guys have any techniques on installing them. I used a piece of pvc pipe that was the o.d. of the seal and hit it with a dead blow mallet I thought it went in straight but could be wrong.thanks again for all your help
