Default The cleanup begins

I got the upper pieces off the engine today and can now see that I have more work ahead of me than first thought.
Although I never had any oil on the garage floor, it was leaking from several places.
If you guys have any comments on what to focus on based on where the dark areas are, it would be appreciated.
Looks like there is some seepage between sections of the tranny case as well.
The odd thing is the oily area on top of the tranny.
Curious if the tall bolt on the top is actually a breather, otherwise, I can't see any other way for that area to get oily.

It's just me but I would have done a pre drop brake cleaner douche. Run it and then see what I have.

Yes It doesn't look bad at all but we are only seeing the top.
