Question Transmission Gasket and Pan Change

I have 1999 Saab 9-3 SE Convertible. I decided to change transmission oil and gasket. When I went under the car I wasn’t able locate transmission pan. What I saw is two parts of transmission seal together. As well I found out small transmission fluid leak from that junction. Please advice how to change transmission fluid and gasket? Any diagram or instructions are welcome. Thanks in advance.

You won't find a removable pan. Service is simply a drain and refill. Although there is a filter, its only replaced during overhaul, since the case halves have to be split to access it.

Question Transmission Leak

Thanks to all of you for responds. I see transmission combine from 2 halves. However, the transmission fluid leak is not in this spot. It’s actually more to the right end. There is another transmission “cover” (I am sorry, do not know proper name) which screw to transmission from right by 6-8 bolts. I need to reseal this. However I am afraid to take this part because I don’t know what under. Does anyone know is it safe to unscrew and reseal it?
Please advice. Thanks
