It looks like I'm gonna have to take everything off and reassemble. I did the tray install with the motor in the car and it was a PAIN.

FWIW, I let the local parts house guy talk me into using the nice new, shiny, expensive, blue, one-piece
oil pan gaskets, TWICE!!!!!!!!! one on a 302 and the other on a 351, both leaked like crazy and I had to replace both!!!!!!!!
I've never had an
oil pan gasket leak one drop using the oil style 2-piece cork and rubber end gaskets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess I learn the hard way.....
