What an absolute Mickey Mouse job on the subfloor(s). It looks like it was shimmed for the height of the toilet flange?
I want to rip up those last 2 layers of planks, remove the flange, cut the pipe down, install modern tongue and groove subfloor, and reset the flange height where it needs to be. It was too high before and causing all the wax to squirt out. I'm assuming the rubber deal made it all better? But the toilet bolts were only finger tight and the line was loose which has been my leak all along. Before I moved back I'd been paying inept fools to find/fix this seemingly elusive leak and all that was needed was fat, dumb, unlicensed me to come along and figure it out. No wonder I never bother to hire a "professional" for anything.
