alright everyone?
just replaced the oil pump, pick up and crank seal on the dv6ted4 engine which has solved the last issue of low oil pressure:D
but it has left me with an oil leak right under the exhaust/cat where there is no bolt for about 5-6inches on the sump, also when i removed the sump i noticed there was no sump gasket, which is pretty confusing when the engine face is dead flat but the sump has raised parts?
i know you can buy gasket paper or sheets of cork to make a gasket from but cant imagine it being that simple?
does anyone know of anyone who makes gaskets for the engine as some sort of upgrade?
cheers guys

Ive always used Wurth RTV silicone sealer without fail on many sumps.
