RE: leaking around tail shaft what is it?
everything is tight...very littles play...think that old c6 yoke could be my problem? it wasn't in the greatest shape either.

Also to be safe before you remove the drive shaft see if it flops up and down at all.There is a brass sleeve inside the tailshaft that helps support the yolk.Sometimes that wears out and the driveshaft wobbles a little in the trans causing it to start leaking.
I inserted a pic the part im talking about is #7

That could be possible.Try to measure it and see if you can get spec's of a new one.I knwo my old yolk had a pretty good groove cut in it.I also put another yolk in at the time.
