Wanted to inspect suspension. Lift ends up slipping and putting a huge dent into the oil pan. Small leak came from the seam. I tried tightening some screws some (great idea i know). Seam broke more but whats worse is the screw broke off. So now I had a decent leak, a dent, and a broken screw sitting in the hole. I drained the oil.
Im going to order a new oil pan ($60
) but what gasket sealant should i use or just a gasket? RTV sealant fine when i put the new one on?
but until that comes in, i need to seal up this leak. Its my moms car and she needs it for work tmrw. I have some black rtv, do you think i can seal up that whole area?

Thanks folks. I messed up i think by putting Ebrake before jacking it up. Which i feel should be done after jacking it up now.
