    My oil pan is leaking around the drain plug and I think I might have to 
get a new oil pan.  I have changed my engine from a 351W to a 351C.  that 
shouldn't make much of a difference in the oil pan size. From what I see I 
would have to take out the entire engine to change the oil pan, I just got a 
new black paint job on it and I really don't wanna take it out. Is there 
another way to take off the oil pan? I was thinking if I take the drive 
shaft out and unbolt the transmission and pull it back a few inches or so 
and replace the oil pan. But I'm not sure if this will work.  Has Anyone 
else had this problem or does anybody know a good way to stop a leak frpom 
around the drain plug?  I have already tried a self-tapping oil plug and new 
gaskets and it hasent worked yet.
