Well, the new gasket didn't stop the leak. In fact, it was a lot worse. I looked around while tranny fluid was going every where and found that when they were replacing either the tranny or engine, they had crushed a tranny coolant line near the motor mount and had replaced it with rubber hose. That hose had moved over and touched the exhaust manifold and got a hole melted in it. It really sprayed when I found the hole. I replaced the hosed and stopped the leak.
I flushed the power steering lines before connecting them. I think there's a leak in the steering box but it may be fluid still running off. I know there's a leak in the rear main seal. It will have to wait until we pull the engine.
