Learned something new, I was now aware of a history of oil leaks for the units. Actually, I was thinking you should check into a used unit, from an RV salvage yard. Until Factory OD transmissions were standard on motor homes they were wildly popular with RVers. So they should be trickling into Salvage yards by now.
However, as you've alerted me to the oil leak problem I'll be doing a little more searching on the fix. I hope its an improved seal system or gasket when one rebuilds a unit, rather than a systemic design fault or uncorrectable casting error with limited possible corrections
