id drain it and put in fresh DEXRON VI (6)
the 3speed has no drain,so....
right side there is the manual lever, and PRNDL switch on end, cable shifted

the oil there may be from leaking distributor 0-rings. down to here easy .
the kick down cable can be loose. and leak
http://www.fixkick.com/slush-pump.html#3L30-leaks
the vacuum mod valve(rear of main case) can leak too, if oil drips from its vacuum nipple its bad.
most folks add drain plug , during first drain and fill. a kit sold
the filter is here

make sure pan is not rusted though.
is your car 2wd/ if yes, the governor screens are more easy to clean 10x. (inside tail shaft housing)
fluid specifications Dex 6
trans has 10.5 pints (5.25qt) includes clutch.
drained for 1 hour 5 to 6 pints come out. so put back, 2.4qt and top off to 3qt
my wild guess.12years, drained. the box is bone dry, and clutch 1/2 full
even 4qt.lost.... over time, worst case.
leaving very little 1.25qt. dont run the engine like this or wreck the front tranny oil pump.
good luck amigo.
