I have the same oil leak in my 1998 LC and gx470. Looks like I will have to drop the oil pan and replace the oil pump O-ring and reseal the pan.

Thanks for the info! If I have to go through the lifting the motor I’ll just replace the bottom drain pain instead of trying to make magic happen with my existing pan.So Justin and I in the club did this in his shop and it was fairly easy. We just took our time. It has held up solid for years now.
I don't know where you live, but you're more than welcome to use my kit and I'll even give you one of these drain plugs. Then I just buy an oversized washer to further seal it and you're good to go. But you can never take it to another oil change place. You have to do it yourself.![]()
