Ok so I have a 2005 CVPI with 101000 miles on it that I brought into a jiffy lube because I'm lazy. when I come back they tell me the transmission is leaking really bad, about 45 drips a minute they said. New pan, gasket and filter. so I switched out all three and put new fluid in, the leak slowed down but when I was putting in the screws, I was turning and turning, till I heard a pop and it just kept spinning, still leaking.
Did I just foul up the gasket. Or is it some other seal? And can this issue solved in my driveway? It appears to be coming from the front of the pan, on the right side. Can get pictures if needed

You may need a timesert or helicoil but yes you can usually repair a stripped thread in your driveway. 
Another thing you may want to check is the pan itself you will want something really flat like a glass table with the pan off set it on the table and check to see if it's gasket surface is level. Sometimes at the bolt holes you may need to lightly pound them flat with a ball-peen hammer, especially if it was ever put in with an air wrench.
