So far, just cleaning everything up and getting all the old oil off. Clean all the surfaces. Hoping my jack holds the engine without damaging it until tomorrow morning when the mount comes in :/

I'm sure it was just the gasket, there was no oil above the housing only on and below it, the gasket kind fell apart when I took it off and the part that seals the oil ports was completely flat meaning the gasket was toast since it couldn't create a seal. I cleaned everything I could so if there is another leak I will see it but the leak was so bad before that as soon as I turned on the truck it started flowing out.
I'm sure I could but I need it up and running and I don't have time to try and mix and match the parts so it's just gunna go back the way it is. But with new seals. I took pictures of what I could do I'll do a "how to" when I'm all done.

Exactly, I thought about the same thing but everything looks to be oem so if it's made it this far I guess I could keep it going. I got 219k on the dash but I don't know the trucks history so that's where a this work comes to play.
