Thanks Dave1, mach and Clark for your responses - very helpful. Regarding your question Clark, the oil is leaking from a few areas around the pan. The gasket seems to be saturated with oil. I can press the edge of the gasket and oil seeps out. Generally, oil seems to accumulate on the bolts and drip from there. I think that I may give it a shot as I am hoping to get to the point where I can do most of my own maintenance. It will be a week or so before I can get around to it so if you or anyone have any more suggestions please pass them on. Thanx
