Leaking Transmission Fluid, From Radiator? Help!?

I have an 1999 Acura 2.3 CL, I have transmission fluid leaking, but it is not leaking from the transmission. It is leaking from a hose that goes from the transmission to the Radiator. Why does thos hose connect to the transmission?

The tranny lines run through the radiator to cool the tranny fluid. Sounds like you need a new rad. Hopefully the metal tranny lines aren't damaged and it's just the rad. I replaced mine it wasn't bad at all. Now would be the perfect time to put a tranny cooler on those lines as well, to help prolong the life of your transmission.
