Determine first where the leak is from. Transfer case or transmission? Both can leak, both can cause loud noises after failure.

It's the transfer case. It's cracked and has a huge hole in it. Thoughts? What do you think could have caused it?

Loose chain would be my guess. I assume that there is no obvious problem with the front driveshaft and yoke.

I didn't see any. How much do you think something like this will cost to repair.

Hmmmm. To do it right I believe about 4k but I hope I'm wrong.

Had you ever checked or changed the transfer case fluid?

.....and checked chain stretch during fluid change by inserting screwdriver into drain hole and prying chain away from sprocket?

I waited until 120k on my chevy tahoe to change the transfer case fluid and it was dark, nasty and sparkly it only lasted until 180k, then I had to replace the output shaft snap ring, chain and shift fork pad. Ended up keeping the truck until 240k miles! Hope I get that kind of mileage out of my E53!
