Sorry, I missed this post... I have 141K on it so far. Everything is still in excellent shape. My motor mounts are still perfect and the lower control arms are also in excellent shape. Very surprised about these two... Tie rods are also fine.

It's pretty strait forward. When you unbolt the pan, there are two bolts hidden up inside the bell housing and there are a couple more in the back that are kinda hidden or they seem like they wouldn't hold the oil pan on but they do...

How bad was the leak?

It looked pretty bad but I think it's been leaking for some time. Sometimes a VCG or OFHG will leak down the side of the block and look like and oil pan leak but I already did those two a while ago.

I was there too. I think that you stopped me on the way out and asked the miles on my car? The Larz Anderson shows are always great. I have taken my Alfa to the Tutto Italiano show 3 or 4 times, but this was the 1st year I went to German Car Day.

Ah, that was me. I was floored by how brand new the car looked from a few feet away, and immediately span into a depression as mine looks extremely weathered. lol
