D16Z6 & JDM D15B SOHC VTEC - Are the oil pans interchangeable?

I wasn't too sure which forum this goes into, so please forgive me...

But I primarily want to know if the oil pans are interchangeable without much work?

(As the D16Z6 oil pan I have is already tapped for oil return line and I want to use it on the D15B).

They can be interchanged. Not sure about the JDM D15B so you gonna have to go take a look at them.

Not true. I used a d15xx off of another Civic when I had to replace man. I can't remember exactly what car it was off of, but I know for sure it was a d15 and it worked just fine.
