i have a 99 civic coupe d16y8 and its leaking a little bit on the oil pan after i replaced it. i used honda bond with the stock gasket i bought from a honda dealership. the sales person said that it was the stock gasket but the old one that was in the oil pan was different. the gasket had holes for the bolts to go through instead of going under them. while looking for oil pan gaskets online I found one similar to my old gasket. my question is should i go with what my old gasket was or go stock? this is the website www.enginepartsstore.com clock on the d16y8 gasket and see what you think

OEM. and make sure you don't torque the bolts too tight that your gasket starts to squeeze out. that can cause a leak.

Disco.

It doesn't hurt to get some Honda bond while you're at it. I swear by it.
