I think that's right. If you look at my pic you can kind of see it. It's nothing fancy, just the block, black RTV, gasket, black RTV, windage tray, black RTV, gasket, black RTV, Canton pan, a few studs and a few bolts all torqued to about 15 ft/lbs -- and it hasn't leaked a drop in a decade. I think either your block is warped, your pan is warped, or you're doing something goofy that I can't think of.
