while you've got it out. you might as well replace the rear-main seal.... its only like 20 bucks at an auto store... if that doesn't fix everything.. also consider re-doing your oil pan too. the oil pan uses like rtv silcon sealant which is pretty inexpensive as well.. hope your project gets back on the road..
