Ditto the above^^^ and do it properly, buy a quality gasket, if you get a cheap one your just going to have to do it again, there are three (3) things you need to keep in mind when installing the oil pan gasket, [any gasket for that matter]...

1- Clean surfaces, and I mean real clean.
2- Proper torque and sequence.
3- "Uniform" mating surfaces, the block should not be a problem but the oil pan flange is easily bent/warped, make sure flange is "flat", pay close attention to where bolt/stud holes are, it is very easy to put a "dent" there if bolt/nut is over-tightened.

Once you have the pan flange cleaned, [old gasket material removed] use a straight edge and go over all of the flange to make sure it is flat and square, and do not go and hammering flat the "dimples" that are supposed to be there. 94
