The front differential has it's own drain on an automatic, so you should be able to flush it out with some cheap gear oil and replace with nicer stuff.

It could possibly have been filled with ATF, by mistake. Try flushing it with gear oil first, as Mike suggested. If it re-fills with ATF, then you know you've got a leak internally.
