Hello guys,

My rear main seal was leaking, so I went ahead and replaced it - and it started leaking again. When I replaced it, I torque all bolts to spec. When I got back under the car, what I found was a bolt that felt "loose"

The bolt I am talking about isn't pictured, but it's the one that goes up from the bottom of the engine and up into this piece. Anyway - I went to go tighten it and without much force at all, the long bolt snapped and it fell onto the ground with half of it's threads still inside. The oil was coming from around this area, too. Have any of you had an issue like this? It's ridiculous, I really would rather not drop the trans again over something like this.
