Product called PigMat. Lay a sheet of it in the pan and it will soak all that ooziness right up. Avoids the inevitable mess when the pan gets knocked over or too full and starts to overflow.

We used to be lazy, just a disposable aluminum bake pan and filled with 20# of kitty litter.
 
That's why I bought the big ol' drain pan in the first place. It's gotta be a pan leak, easy kill. Fluid's nice and cherry red though.
Add some pig mats to the drip pan and it won't get away from you and the mess is much easier to deal with.

Edit - Nick beat me to it.

Bonus to the Pigmat is that once saturated you just fold it up and trash can it. Or wring it out into a 5 gal catch pail and put it back. Way simpler than trying to dump a tray of ATF (Been there, done that, have the stains on a sweatshirt to prove it.) As for the kitty-shitty, it is just floor dry with some kind sweet smelling deodorant added to cover up the cat-ammonia odor. Still a nuisance to try and dump into a trash can. Mind you, on a dirt or gravel floor, you can just turn the tray over and it will soak into the background with no fuss or muss at all. Only issue would be if you were on a well-water system. You would not want your bath water to smell like ATF!! And imagine the reaction of a significant other if she emerged from the shower and discovered she was waterproof and rust resistant! (ATF makes a good undercoating fluid with a little wax added to hold it on the metal.

Siphoned 20L of bad gas from 2012 or 2013 out.
Then poped the carb off for a cleaning.

Gave it another go on the Sniper, had a bunch of errors that wouldnt let it fire. Did some research guess I have to start with a TPS reset since it is erroring which won't let it start. Don't believe I had to do that on the last 2 we did, dunno if thats something new with them. Guess its a good thing I ordered the cable to connect to a laptop a while ago, now I just gotta clear some p*rn off to make room for the program, hahaha
 
Cauterize, that picture you posted of your motor shows a situation that is about as classically stock as the top of an intake can get! GREAT Reference picture for someone looking to identify all the various hoses and wires. Even shows the cruise control body.

Nice and crisp shot; I do plan on adding a copy of it to my reference pages. Any more along the same line to share?? Huh? Huh?? Huh???

What controlled the cruise on these cars? I suspect mine started as a V6 turd.
Vacuum diaphragm and electronic input off the speedo from what I remember.
