are you sure its not the front main seal, my oil pan was drenched in oil to, but from the fms not the pan gasket, but go to clubna-t.com, in the sc3/4 section there's the factory service manual that you can download...

quite likely an oil seal on the front. perhaps cam, or crank front main seal- goes out when older or heavily revved from high pressure

if your milage is high, might as well just change oil pump too if you need a clutch or large service. thats actually an engine out job......
