Anyways for me the bolt just came free after it took the threads out with it. Speaking of which I was under my car today and the transmission looks fine, it hasn't leaked with my fix so I won't need to helicoil it.
In terms of the crank seal plate I will be working on it soon, but I need some tools to get it done because none of my 3/8" drive tools will fit, they are either just a bit too short or the extensions are just too long. So yeah that sucks.
I will see if I can drop the radiator fan out of the car but we will see.

Ohhh I see I see, yea the threads sounds like a bigger pain in the bum to deal with on the transmission side. And sounds good! I'll probably get under the car this weekend and start looking at the crank seal guard as well
