alright if the transmission is slipping it can happen again if not serviced immediately each time it slips is potential danger. Not all leaks are bad either, I would see what another mechanic says, but in the same sense if it is just a little seep it will adhere to dirt on the vehicle and it will look wet. If you replaced the lines make sure everything is done right. Transmissions are a tricky thing after 200k miles
