Really need help with leak thru bolts on extension housing. 200 1988

Hello again,
I'm back working on my ol'88 and I still have the same problem of ATF leaking past the bolts, I tried tighten them some more but am now afraid to strip them. I'm about to take things apart a third time and I really want this to be the final. I was hoping someone could give me some ideas or advice. Also it seem to leak past the bolts on the AT pan, it get wet around them. I'm not sure about the torque on them I tried to tighten them to but they still leak, maybe tighten them to much.

I've used felpro gasket both times and I don't really see a leak past perimiter of it but I see ATF slowly accumulating on some of the bolts and its dry around them which has led me to belive it somehow get past the bolts. It don't look like much in the pics but thats only a minute after I cleaned it.

Thanks,
John Mpls
