Big issue is access -but you have it on the hoist & the gearbox off. .So I suggest you ask for a "While we're in there list"
One thing to check is the AOS.
Take some photos of the IMS cover and ask if you have the single row or double row IMSB.My guess is -single. That is worthy of a separate thread .
At those miles the DMF should be O.K. but it is easy to check now.Later ....not so much.
Consider changing the gbox fluid?

Yep, new to the whole AOS stuff, but will be well-read on it in a few days.

I was planning on removing the cover (after isolating the engine at TDC or whatever and loosening the chain tensioners. If that post has any lateral play whatsoever after the cover is off, it's getting replaced. Might even replace it just for ****************s-n-giggles so I can say that the car has a new one...I doubt I will own this for more than a year, as it is a tide-me-over while my "Diablo Thing" is being finished.

Gearbox oil will be replaced.

The DMF is toast. Getting a new one. The DMF friction surface looked great, and that is what pissed me off when I found that the DMF was WAY out-of-spec.
