I told him it leaked again, he's trying to blame the leak on the transmission being out of alignment, and it's pulling down on the crank. Factory bellhousing, hemi a833 and transmission crossmember, nothing custom, so that's complete b.s.
What he is saying is possible but IMO unlikely. It would require a lot of misalignment to do so, not to mention putting pressure on the rear main bearing, the trans would be difficult to put in, and it would likely have shifting problems.
However, I do believe the service manual recommends dialing the bellhousing if changing from a assembly line installed unit. They do sell offset dowel pins to correct misalignment issues. It can be done in the car preferably on a lift but either way it's a PITA.
Or you can do the pressure test and go from there
