Try tighting the six bolts and see if leak stops.Plate is for cleaning out oil pan
Before removing plate to replace gasket you should hold oil pump in place
by inserting holding tool in the pipe plug inline with dizz and plate just above
Oil pan parting line.I am not sure if oil pump will fall though plate opening
Parts houses sell holding tool.
