One week after the ordeal and all's well
Finally picked her back up the weekend before last and after a week of driving, thankfully it's so far, so good. No fluids where they shouldn't be and haven't noticed any rattles coming from the front end so dont think I ended up with any free tools under the hood. Since the engine was mostly disassembled I got new gaskets and seals all around, a new radiator, a coolant flush, and a second oil change for $71 bucks (the price of the synthetic oil change, etc I had done before the road trip)! Had it not been under warranty the bill would have been close to $2500 so thanking my lucky stars that I bought the extended warranty and we found the leak before I hit 100k!!!
