Default 2000 Camry

I have a 2000 Camry that started blowing transmission fluid while merging on the interstate. When I got it home and on ramps I could see that the fluid was coming out 2 holes behind the transmission cooler lines. My shop manual doesn't show anything on the holes anywhere but a shade tree mechanic said it was vent holes. Does anyone have any ideas? My manual list reasons this could happen and I eliminated all but drain-back holes are plugged. Where are they and how do I fix this? I have active cancer and cannot afford to pay to have it repaired.


Thanks,
Dan

if oil is venting from holes the transmission oil got too hot and air-rated

or oil has got too thin and requires a oil change including the filter

best check the tightness of the cooling lines
