OK, Jim Thanks.
But First -- Can anyone tell us if the oil pan for the van's sloped mounting
angle is different from a rabbit mounted diesel oil pan?
(remember I'm a Novice VagOwner. Use full words
for me so I understand.)
Second -- I found a pro welder who TIGs aluminum every day. I hope he can
evaluate my pan tonight.
Welding may be preferred if this is such a rare part. Keeps Jim's pan in
circulation.
(I do like the color of his oil pan. It matches my
Yellow Submarine.)
Thanks for all the help!!! This is a TERRIFIC CAN-DO Community.
