Engine swap, transmission fluid leaked out
Is it normal for some transmission fluid to leak out of the front of the transmission while removing the motor from the truck?

yeah, as Ky said, not much should come out if any. when you remove the diptube while pulling the motor you leave a big hole for the fluid to leak through, the level isn't far below that level so if it isn't kept level the fluid will come out.
