Trust me, I tried not to remove it at first, then kicked myself in the ass for not doing it right away.

Ninja edit, that is actually the hose I didn't change when I did my coolant hoses, and guess which hose popped on me. Right at the friggen plastic T.
So no gasket to replace if I remove the TB?

I'd rather remove it and do it right.
