I'm back, WHEW! Your gonna have to get gloves that go to the shoulder........ the hardest part will be trying to seal the back of the pan, very thin motor casting at the back of the skirt, hardly anything to seal to. The DII went with a cast aluminum oil pan, which is a little better since it doesn't deform like the D1's steal pan at the bolts. The other thing about the D1's is the lip does deform, usually from over tightening the mounting bolts so try straightening the lip as much as you can. I use a straight edge, a steel ruler but anything that's straight will do. Channel locks work to bend the lip and a hammer and dolly to straighten/flatten where the bolts mount through. Another thing is the bolts I believe use a lock washer but they don't really do the trick. I use Locktite red to make sure the bolts don't loosen. You'll have to clean them for that to work, carb cleaner or the MEK works.
