I am a little shocked that your rear main seal is still original. You have an N54/55?? Correct.
I would tell you to replace your engine & trans mounts, if they are original and you are at 160,000 miles. Either go OEM or get an upgraded set. Just stay away from 034.

I am losing about 1/4 qt of oil every 1000 driven miles.
