The trickiest part of the oil pan gasket replacement is the seal that is inserted into a groove in the rear main bearing cap. You need to thoroughly clean that groove, ensure a tight fit of the seal in the groove, especially at the ends and glue the cork or cork substitute seal in place. You are basically flying blind as to whether the seal is matching with the lip on the oil pan uniformly from end to end.
