Angry Oil Pan Gasket, what the?
I found one for $53 (which is close to what the cast pan costs). All other online adds just show a bunch of tubes of sealant. Is there any other source options? Help! Chuck

I’ve used Permatex black form a gasket and the grey also. There isn’t a factory gasket for the oil pan

The black will work just fine and lasts 10 years.

What port? A bead the size of a bb all along the perimeter will do it.

There’s an oil passage port from the lower block to the pan, you must seal it or no oil pressure
