best stuff to stop an oil leak on my oil pan
 
I have a minor leak on my oil pan and its just in one spot and I was wondering if there is a good oil leak stop stuff you can put in your motor to help with the leak. Let me know if you know of anything thanks

Don't believe in any of those "Pour this into your engine and stop all leaks!" crap, it's all BULLSHIT and a waste of money. Listen to the guy above me.

try valvoline MAXlife, it has seal sweller.

Another thing to do is re-torque those oil pan nuts. i found 2 missing nuts on mine. i bought new ones and re-torqued all of them only to find out most of them were loose!
