46RH making noise in Park and Neutral

Couldn't get the fancy deep aluminum pan off. I used transmission gasket sealant. Took a porta-power to move the pan to break the seal. Now I've got a big scraping chore. Never again. Now I recall servicing the trans not long ago. I saved the fluid for re-use.

The 'sparklies' are all less then 1mm and their aren't many. Some black dustlike stuff I always see. The only thing I noticed are the small black pieces on the filter. The small black chunks in the pan are likely from when the pan gasket broke loose.
