I was going to weld it, but it's got 200K on it, the fluid was black, and when it separated from the engine it kicked down a little taking some of the splines off the outer stator shaft.

I think he got confused. Only the tranny was cracked. The bellhousing was completely separated from the engine by more than a half an inch.
The initial damage was old. The crack in the bellhousing started in the same place mine did, over the starter bulge, close to the main case flange. It's obvious that it had been there for some time.
It looks exactly like the one I did last year. The crack in the case on the drivers side, and the fracture pattern in the bellhousing are almost identical. The bellhousing on Phil's was a catastrophic failure and the CV is totally gone. I'm thinking it was the CV that did the final damage, he drove with a pretty severe vibration for an awful long time at freeway speeds.
