Little update. Looks like the pan gasket is not longer leaking, but the oil pump is. It turns out that when I installed the oil pump, I found a fleck of rubber afterwards. I was pretty sure I have nicked the o-ring upon installation. I thought about pulling it and re-doing (would have been the smart thing to do looking back... 
) but decided to go for it anyways. DUMB DUMB DUMB! New o-ring was ordered yesterday, and I already have the pulley off the oil-pump and sure enough there's oil all around the perimeter. 
Still not sure on the RMS. I want to make sure the dripping I'm seeing isn't from the oil-pump blowing back there first before I drop the clutch... again!

Glad to hear about the oil pan gasket,sorry to hear about the oil pump gasket I feel your pain! A real bitch to have to go back in and deal W/ this stuf. That wich does not kill you makes you stronger...or just pisses you off, I forget. I am thinking positive on the RMS for ya.
