like it says I replaced the oil pan gasket with a piece of #%% cork gasket from autocrapzone and sure enough it started to leak again. could this be a engine seal or something else? The leak is right under the stupid flywheel shield so its really hard to see and replace. Have to remove the center bar to get to the oil pan. Any ideas
thanx for the help guys!!

first of all, there is no gasket for the oil pan. you are supposed to use a sealant called FIPG from toyota. you can get away with using blakc RTV also but im set on what i know works. i dont know what kind of micky mouse gasket autozone provided but its wrong!
