ATF leak on 2001 V70XC? V70-XC70 2001

I just changed the oil on my 2001 V70XC at 24000 miles. There appears to be some leakage from the transmission to the left of the oil pan, and it looks like a little bit of ATF has dripped onto the belly pan and dried up. There's no active or obvious leak, and what's there looks more like some fluid that dried and picked up some dirt.

Does this sound like a familiar or serious problem to anyone? I checked the ATF level and it is OK. I don't know if it was ever topped off by the dealer on one of the 2 dealer services that were done.

My owners manual says nothing about checking the ATF level, topping off, or any change or flush interval. Should I assume its lifetime or change it at some point?

Thanks
