It really was. All the way along there were minor scuffs, then that
huge drain bolt grabbed on and torn the back off the pan. Wonder if I
should install a skid plate.

I am wanting the whole shebang new. There were a few bolts that felt
cross threaded while trying to get the pan off. Going to want a fresh
drain plug and gasket.

I'd get a new pan from a recycler. Most people don't tear a hole in the
pan more than once - but if you're a really slow learner

Time to get out the welder! Welding oily/fuely metal can be tricky,
as it soaks into the pores. Can be done, however. Of course, a
U-Pull pan, if available, is easier and plenty cheap enough.

I got one from Rusty awhile back, never used it but as I recall it was only
about $30.

Just get one and be more careful. They're cheap enough to make you
think the gasket is overpriced.

I hate quoting other people's prices but I want to say the pan I got
from Rusty last year was like $13.00 and the gasket was more
I think I've got a couple spare pans lying around...well, they're
still attached to NFG engines, but around nonetheless.

Something jumped up and bit the sh*t out of my oil pan in Gump. Got
about a half mile before I noticed the pressure dropping. Was able to
pull into a gas station and call for a tow while she piddled what
little oil she had left. Just want to kick yourself in the nuts when
that happens and
I think the steel portion of the pan from any OM61X engine will work.
btw: The same thing happened to my old 220D back when my ex drove it
down a steep hill at high speed, then bottomed out, tearing a
dime-sized hole in the front edge. I'm surprised as hell that she
even noticed it before
