Vince,
You're very close at 20%. Whenever I see actual back to back engine verses chassis dyno numbers for the same Pantera, the math always works out to 19%. Rounding to 20% gives a good fudge factor.
19% power losses through the drive line is one of the reasons the mid engine layout is superior for sports cars.
