Default Trans help.. I have no clue

Ok so after everybody in the world assured me my front input shaft seal was causing my problem I dropped the trans & the seal was fine.Heres whats going on.I hopd in my truck one day & drove a very short distsnce then the truck had no gears.As I poured fluid in the trans it came out of the seap hole @ the inspection cover as fast as I poured it in.While it has trans fluid in it itll shift just fine.Now Im not sure if heat is a problem but when it stops shifting if u let it sit overnite the next day it will shift just fine.
I blew the lines out but even after that the leak was still there.As I said the seal looked like new.Theres a cover / plate that sits in the bellhousing infront of the trans pan I have no idea how to or whats behind it.Does anyone have any idea what I should do next or what look for?Any help would be greatley appreciated.Thank you....95 ram 1500 5.9 360 4x4 46rh trans

bushing in the torque converter could be bad (just had that on my car found after replacing all the seals on the front of the trans). if you have the trans out plug the rear and lines, and pour a little fluid in and watch where it comes from
