That looks to be the shift cable (control cable in Honda speak) if the transmission is leaking(red fluid) then its most likely the torque converter seal. If its golden brown then its oil and the rear main shaft seal is leaking.

Re: help with transmission leak

could be the shift shaft seal if your trans fluid is low. if your engine oil is low, could be the rear main oil seal
