I broke a metal tube that bolts onto the bottom of the transission. It is about 1.25" and has a rubber hose attached to it. I do know is for the hydrolics.

Oh yea I lost most of it. The part was 73 dollars , the fluid 56 dollars and gasket another 6 dollars. At this point it doesn't feel very inexpensive. The question I have is the dealer had it in stock, is it a common part to break . ....
