Pulled engine: damage report.........so far.

I pulled the engine this morning and so far have found 4 bad things:

1. Freeze plug on passenger side rusted and leaking
2. Freeze plug on rear of engine (hidden by transmission) rusted and leaking really bad
3. Broken exhaust manifold stud (common and to be expected)
4. Broken motor mount ear (I think I can deal with this as is)

I haven't torn down the front of the engine yet.  I'm planning on removing the water pump, timing cover, oil pan and timing chain.
