Turns out the torque converter was actually installed incorrectly and broke the tabs on the pump drive gear. Only solution is (another) transmission.

Front pumps can be replaced and the tranny parts are fairly common as they are shared with the Mercedes and Audi. The problem is you have to remove everything inside the trans to get to the pump assembly

That is what I hear and I don't know if I want to go down that road on somebody eles' car which I will be responsible for. I would rather he buy another trans and if it doesn't work its on him.
