    is this an oil pan gasket?

    ok my bike is leaking fairly bad now...i have this thing of gaskets that i got with the bike...i test fitted the block/jug gasket to another 850 engine an it fit...

    im guessing this is the oil pan? i hope so...

    my bike is an 81 850

    Looks like one to me.

    We would call it a sump gasket over here.

        You could try laying the bike over onto its right side.

        Don't say can't, as anything is possible with time and effort, but, if you don't have time things get tougher and require more effort.

                Clean the pan and screen but I am sure that gravity takes care of anything else

                  got it all done..no more leaks down there now...so far at least...the gasket was rock hard an litteraly just came right off the surface in peices...

                  BUT i found this in my oil pan...if i had to guess this is the first time the pan has been off in 31 years...im not to worried since well it runs fine with no odd noises...

                  also can the 2nd picture be a valve cover leak?
