I'm hoping to fix a leak, which looks like from the rear of the oil pan. I bought a new gasket that fits as far as shape and bolt-holes go, but has a number of protrusions around it. The protrusions have no mating holes to go into. The depressions in the pan aren't deep enough to accommodate them. Not a big deal to trim them down, but just want to know if I am missing something.
Also, the rear of the gasket sticks out beyond the pan flange. There is no room for this as the transmission plate is right up against the pan. I'll have to trim that off and use some sealer there.
