can anyone get that image or photos back?
need to be sure on exact locations. on the fill and drain bolt
replaced an axle and fluid came out. Im guessing this is trans fluid, not gear oil/diff oil?

You always want to drain your transmission fluid when you do an axle pull. The axles seal in fluid.

As for the bolt locations, this DIY is pretty much identical to that of the D17 transmission:
