Default Does this look normal? transmission fluid leak

I am leaking some transmission fluid and it appears to be coming from where the dipstick tube and the tube connected to the transmission pan meet. It looks like the two have seperated a little. Does this look normal? thanks to all that help, this site is the best.

i have attached a couple of pics, hopefully they help my explaination

Check the outside of the tube to see if fluid was spilt during a fill. Clean everything off and see if the leak comes back. There should be at least one o-ring seal on the tube if it is a "press in" tube. Can you move the tube around? I have not messed with the trans yet so I do not know if it is a press/bolt in piece but there should be at least one bolt (usually on the bellhousing) that holds the tube in place.
