B230: Oil Pan Gasket sort of Missing Here, Yeah? 200

Folks,

I removed the front B230 engine cover into which the front crank seal and the front intermediate cam seal installs.

The nuts securing the cover were under barely any torque. So, with a suspect front cover gasket, I removed it.

And voila, in the image you see here, the front of the oil pan gasket, that seals to the bottom of the front B230 cover, into which the front crank seal and the front intermediate cam seal installs, is gone.



No gasket matter under the front cover.

So, I'll need to replace the entire oil pan gasket?

Please advise.

Thank you.

Season's Greetings!
