Trans connector seal, or rear main seal, which is a PITA cause you have to drop the transmission, and diff gasket, maybe output shafts as well.

Probably 100 dollars or so, even 100 seems steep for just a gasket and a seal, I couldn't imagine it being more then 150, I paid about 800 for both but that was including labor.

Crank seals are usually between $15-25 so they aren't very expensive. Its not the parts that cost a lot, its the labor. As greg mentioned, you have to pull everything out to get to that area so its very $$ labor wise but if you have free labor I guess you are in luck . Sometimes just changing to a thicker oil help as well. If you are going to replace the oils I recommend going with Royal Purple for the engine & diff. hope that helps.
