transmission parts identification

[carhouse]

my first post. 2003 f250 6.0 leaking from several places. I cant find anything that identifys a certain part. its attached to transmission housing on the right side below block heater there looks to be a solenoid and then something that loos like an old vw starter motor. i have pics if i could figure out how to upload them. frustrated beyond belief with all my leaks.

if it looks like a starter it probably is a starter. you just described its exact location

normally i would feel stupid, but ive spent so much time under the hood this week im losing focus. First leak i fixed this week was the fuel pressure blue spring upgrade as the skeleton key gasket was leaking. Then I thought my poweer steering pump was leaking but after pressure washing it i havent found it. WHile looking under truck i found the bottom bolt of the starter leaking an oily fluid.
