Subject:New diesel oil pans

Hi-
        I am contemplating getting a new oil pan for my soon to be
diesel powered vanagon as I have heard the old style do not seal very
well. Was wondering what current diesel owners experiences have been
with the drain bolt leaking? Then I just wanted to confirm that the
new oil pans actually have a 'different' sealing mechanism (ie, a bolt
with sealing washer in a hole as opposed to the old bolt shaft plugging
hole in pan).

TIA
