Tdis are quite easy on the trans so I think it was unlucky or a cover up by previous owner that it blew.
Leaks are fairly simple to fix once correctly diagnosed.
I agree. You will never get back the work and money you have put into it already. I would try and source a good second hand one though, and not get one from the self service mob. You will want a decent warranty, and quite a few LR dismantlers will instal it for you. Unless, of course, you have a lazy 3.5 K. After all, whatever you replace it with could have even worse issues.
