It sounds like the forward clutch seals are starting to leak. This isn't good news. I'd recommend you start searching up on 98+ transmission swaps, as it sounds like you may need one in the near future.

My best guess would be that as the trans heats up, the fluid gets thinner and the case expands slightly more than the seals, since they are steel and the case is aluminum.
If it is indeed the forward clutch seals, it will continue to get worse.
