Looks like the pump went out, ground down the TC a little, rest is normal wear. Rebuild it provided nothing else is really bad. How does the housing look, where the pump rides? Is it scored up pretty good also? Thanks for sharing. More and more transmissions will be following your path as miles and TQ add up.
Thanks mang! Yea it kinda took the wind out of my sails today.

I like your approuch, get a tranny AND rebuild yours. This way you have a back-up and it will be llike $ in the bank, if you don't need it or use it you can always sell it.

Bit of a mess. I think the TC bushing/bearings failed & took out the pump. Common. Usually starts with a whine & then fluid leak from the seal then failure.
Good luck!

BTW - there is an upgraded pump and K2 drum for the 722.6. I am unable to identify whether your car has the upgrade or not.
On the 722.9 the pump upgrade was for quieter operation according to the literature.
