I was wondering about that and decided to use the oil pan gasket on hand anyway instead of just plain RTV as I originally wanted to do.

For automatics the pan is aluminum, so that might not matter. For manual transmissions as I understand the pan is steel.

Anyway the sealing on this engine is just plain awful. Those engineers ought to be sent to Japan to study.
