Idk if u could tell from the picture but trans is on the right and exhaust is on left if tht give u a better idea of where the pic is.
Yes,the rear engine seal is a separate part from the trans seal,whoever replaced it may have bungled the job(messed up the seal as they installed it),or they didn't install one at all,i suggest you take the car back and demand they make it right.
