I don't think I did. I took it out before I pulled the tranny from the motor. it was in one piece. I was reading something about the air gap and a paper gasket? If I did destroy it will that cause me to not get my plugs to fire?

and when you said I would need the electronics where you talkin about the shift solenoids inside the pan or were you talking about the sensors outside on the transmission

I would take a look at the crank sensor, and verify that it is still in one piece. No gasket for it that I am aware of. If the sensor is damaged, the truck most certainly will not run.
