I have a Windows 2008 Server that gives me 0x80070246 error for over a hundred updates I have in the queue. Also, it appears that various files are not consistent. It reports having .net framework 2.0.50727.4253 installed but asp-net 2.0.50727.4257 but I appear to have 2.0.50727.7071 version of the mscorwks.dll inside a directory under winsxs directory while version .4243 mscorwks.dll is under Windows\Microsoft.Net\Frameworks\2.0.50727.
checksur reports no problems, even sfcfix.exe reports no corruption but sfc /scannow will not get pass 24% when it runs in a Windows Protection error.
CBS log entries have this:
