I took off the metal base plate (2" X 8") that the 2 oil filters sit on because it looked like it was always leaking oil around there. Unbolted the 6 and there is no gasket there! Is this correct, no gasket needed there behind this plate? Also, I thought since the oil is out, maybe I should replace that big (is it called oil pan?) gasket around the bottom. Always seems oily down around there, too. Might be leaking. Can I just unbolt all those bolts and take it off or would I need to take apart lots of other things, too? Looks to me like it would be able to come off by itself with no messing around with other parts. Having fun learning how to do all this!
