Thanks. It does seem to be a chore from what I can see. I am going to weig my options at this point. Basically someone mutilated by bolt to the pan when taking it for an oil change. The bolt looks like it was hammered back in to the pan, so I wanted to avoid cutting it out. However looking at what it entails to replace the oil pan, I think I will go with the lesser of two evils.
THanks
