I don't know autos, but is it possible the pan or even the transmission body is bent or dented or something?

There's a gasket? I thought you had to use threebond? Anyway, I'd agree with Vikash that there may be something deformed.

There's a gasket for the AT pan.

Make sure that both the transmission and pan are clean of all the old gasket material.

Also, the bolt holes on the pan can get bowed. Take a hammer and lightly tap them so the mating surface is flat.
