Putting back transmission, had to be the driver side one a bit to make room, putting it back it's not going in right, I may have stripped one tooth, it's not wanting to go in, not sure if you have any suggestions. Don't know if it's the treads or the collar.

That is no good, I am not sure that is fixable. You might need a new case.
