 Joe,  If you were going to be using a deeper oil pan, the bushing would
be a help there. Tapered pipe threads, when screwed together, do form a
pretty tight seal, so anything you use to "seal" the threads should work.
Just be careful of excess sealer getting into the oil feed line. The pipe
won't unscrew because it doesn't have any place to go. I told you MY fix
for the pick-up tube idea, and after the pan is on, WHO WILL EVER SEE IT
?   Prototypes are always "works in progress" not shadetree!     Tom in
