Ok, I put some spacers under the rear linkage and managed to get all 5 gears and reverse. Started adjusting the cable length under the shifter but no luck. I might just stick with what I've got and call it the day.
The leaking is because a plug is on the driverside rear had backed itself out on the test drive and created an open hole that was spewing gear oil. The plug stayed with the car however! Thanks for small miracles. Haha
I'll clean everything back up, reinstall the plug, and change out the transmission fluid. It was about due anyway - it's been a few yrs since it was last done. At some point, I'll probably bring the car to someone that has experience adjusting these cables and get it done but it works for now.
