yes, take it out and take a scrapper to the flange at the pan and scrape it off. i would then take a wire brush and brush that area and the oil level sensor aswell. then use black rvt and BOOOM your done. and dont crank the **** out of the bolts. good way to get away using a torque wrench is use a 1/4 drive ratchet and do it with one hand.

Any other options? How about order the correct rubber o-ring from Mazda ?
For OEM parts, give Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda a call at 888 533 3400. He owns an FD (I've heard he now owns two actually) so you don't have to bother with part #s, just describe to him the part you need. Plus, he offers rx7club discounts and usually ships for free

^ i was not aware that there was a rubber ring for the sensor. i bought my sensor brand new from ray for 168. there was no rubber ring with it. he always throws the proper gaskets in so i assumed the black rvt was needed. it holds fine theres not a chance of it leaking. i dont know how its a "back yard fix". most volkswagons that i world on believe it or not have machined fit... no gaskets! its one thing if we were talking about an oil pan but a oil level sensor only has a couple bolts. i'll call ray and bust his nuts if he failed to send me a gasket!
