My experience is that when mixed, the two types will quickly start eating up 
seals and gaskets. Don't even start the engine as that will make things 
worse. Just pull the pan and let it drip for awhile before giving it fresh 
fluid. You might end up needing a re-seal or worse, but I wouldn't expect 
any hard parts to require attention.
