Got the pan off finally, everything seems to be in place so far except the metal fragments in the pickup tube. the front pickup had a few copper shavings. The shop who did the install originally, appears to have stripped 2 of the screw holes in the block for the oil pan, and forgot to install 2 additional screws so i am down a total of 4 oil pan screws, 2 of which probably need a timesert now, surprised nothing leaked. Anyway here are the initial pics, I will add more in the next few days as i investigate further. first thing since i am waiting on a new torque wrench, is to rotate the crank and check the caps to see if any are loose before i remove them, then ill start pulling them one by one and check for damage.
