Am I missing something?
There is no oil pan gasket... it's forma-gasket crap, and looks most like the Permatex Grey liquid gasket.
If you've sprung a leak, you can unbolt the motor mounts and tranny mounts, and jack up the engine a few inches. Then unbolt the pan, and reach in there and unbolt the oil pickup. Slide the pan out, scrape off all forma-gasket residue, and apply a new bead in the groove.
