Someone must of had the pan off before I hit this car , so if the pan has the slots use gasket with the tits rt? / just wasn't sure cause it has the other one on it with the 1/2 " lip around it ok thanks ( just dnt want any leaks )
Yes, there is a special gasket with nipples that you pull through the slots. You have to order an oil pan gasket kit for a 68 or earlier 273/318 engine. I'm not sure if they still had them in 69.
You need to use a rubber gasket on each of the round parts of the pan, and then the flat cork one for the long part. Put some RTV/Silicone sealant on the corners where the two gaskets meet.
When tightening the pan, do not torque the bolts. You will split the cork gaskets. Just snug the bolts until you start to see the flat cork gasket just start to swell/squeeze near the bolt and then stop. Begin in the center and work your way from side to side from the center outward in each direction. After you tighten the last one, go back for one finish/final snug on all of the bolts again, just seeing the gasket squeeze and then stop.
