No gasket, just case against case. There's actually a weep hole, IIRC it's on the transmission side, so no reason to have a gasket.

When I did my '96 Ram 4x4 46RE transmission rebuild a few years ago, my transmission mount was in good shape, so I reused it. If it was questionable, I would have replaced it, but it was fine.

only missing one bolt. Bell housing to motor Dropped it when I had about 3 ft extension.
it will show up somewhere sounded like hit floor Jack. Anyway it’s the small one.
