[QUOTE="kzite29, post: 16639532, member: 186342"] Thanks! I really appreciate the quick feedback. On #1, I think the oil [i]should [/i]go back out the galley it came in, not through the seals up the piston. But I'm really not sure if this is by design because they were working flawlessly when I took them out. No noise, no wear on guides, etc. #2 I think the thing that gets me is the black powder coating on the pan. I'm sure the gasket is designed to seal against that and not the bare metal (iron based?) of the pan. Or maybe there's corrosion concerns? I could possibly recoat the sanded surface for less $$ and hassle than a new pan, but rattle can paints are hit or miss for surface finish. I'll give it a few whacks with wood under it though, sounds like it's worth a shot! Not sure how these little wrinkles in the surface happened to be honest, no dents in the pan. All the best.
