89 vert oil pan leak

Hi guys I know this is a common issue with these cars and a few threads on it.
I’m checking to see if there’s anyone that’s fixed this lately with sealant that’s maybe newer type.
This vert has framing in the way of dropping the pan, any tips?

i would clean it really well, and make sure its not something else first.
i wouldn't say this job is hard, but its not fun either.

Mazda has gone to a Three Bond 1217. if you use Permatex, they never discontinue the old stuff, so you're kind of on your own, but you want the newest stuff its better.
the oil level sensor O Ring is N326-10-T11

Thanks great info. I’ll order the three bond, did you use a gasket with it?

There's like 6 or 8 bolts - just remove them and it comes out.
