Got the rear driveshaft off after doing something silly (taking the 6 bolts off the rear diff). Pulled up the little bolts with the covers at the rear differential ujoint, wiggled a pry bar, driveshaft dropped down, pulled it out of the tcase.
Should have anticipated the tcase leaking thank God I had a bucket in my truck or I wouldve been cleaning a mess all night. Noticed a slow leak coming out of the back of the transfer case at the rear driveshaft... might need to figure out what seal that is and replace it before I put the driveshaft back on.
Also think I found the fabled 3 bolts to turn the IP a hair. The 3 I circled, are these the bolts holding the IP I need to loosen to turn the IP a hair? At first I was only finding two then I felt around by the throttle cable thing and found what I believe is the third.
Ignore my light on the second photo, it was really hard to see without, it's right below the throttle cable.

Next steps: ujoints and seal for tcase, in the meantime seeing if I can adjust the IP to correct the smoking/knocking issue with a timing adjustment. Next update this week or weekend, likely with a video of the smoking/knocking/timing issue.
