Mata transmission leaking oil from weep hole. Why?

What’s a “Mata”?

Did you mean Miata?

Are you talking about a weep hole at the lower front of the transmission? If so, any oil leak out of there is going to be caused by a faulty transmission mainshaft seal, leaking nose cone plate seal on the transmission, or possibly an engine rear main seal.
