i have new oil pan coming from ebay i found for like 20 bucks, cant beat that.
you sure bending that peice back will fix my problems? why would it cause my car to run like crap above 4k? because it isnt getting enough oil?

My injector clip fell off last night, now i was already throwing a code but it started to run like crap... Felt like a miss-fire so i pulled over and went over everything and found my clip had worked its way off... Found a clip for it put it back on good to go
Does it feel choppy ? Like a miss-fire you feel in the petal?

inspection plate is the piece that covers the flywheel.
I would definitely replace the pickup. It could have a hairline crack that bending back will aggravate
