I was just reading back through the thread to refresh my memory on previous research and realized that I never went back and posted the oil pan gasket part number. (it wouldn't let me edit old posts) Here you go:

2.3 Oil Pan Gasket - NAPA OS30400 A
This is also the standard Felpro part number

I found directions on the back stating that I should apply "adhesive" to the mating surfaces of the gasket. I assumed that was the case. I'll be smearing clear RTV on both sides after everything is scraped clean and wiped with acetone.

Does anyone know where I can source a bottom skid plate for a Montero? Most of the junkyard vehicles are mssing the skid plate so far.
