Default Question on transmission leak around cooler

I have a 2009 dodge ram 1500,4x4, 5.7 completely stock. It came with the HD transmission cooler. I seem to have a leak around the cooler or the lines on the front. My question is has any one else seen this yet? I took it once to a dealer (stealership) and they could not find the leak and said they "cleaned" it and put die in it to find the leak but then could not. After driving about 1K miles i checked it and found they did not clean it but just tried to spray it down with degreser and hope for the best, now i have it over my radiator and all the lines and it has run down to the bottom of the fan shroud.

my next question is for people from oklahoma area, who has the best service for a dodge dealership?

I have an 09, 4x4, 5.7, sport and I take it to Bob Moore off of NW Expressway in OKC. I had an issue with transmission fluid leaking around the gear box. They put dye in it and I drove it for about a month and took it back and they replaced both seals in the gear box. If you go to Bob Moore talk to Steven or David in the service department. They both seem to be very knowledgeable and are good guys to deal with.
