1994 945 non-turbo, 145k.

Well, It happened. I was driving to the grocery store yesterday morning with the wife and kids to get donuts. When we got there, a little smoke was coming out of the hood. Stopped, checked it out, a six inch pool of oil below the pan. Seems I busted a gasket or seal. Looks like the rear of the pan gasket, but may be the rear seal. not sure. Anyhow, didn't lose any on the dipstick, and drove it 3 miles home. Cleaned it up and it stopped leaking, obviously decreased pressure from not running.

Checked flame trap, clean.

Changed to Mobil 1 2,000 miles ago. Have not changed Mann Filter, probably should have.

How much would either of these cost for repair.

If it is the Pan gasket, is it that difficult to repair???

Thanks for all any reponses.
