if your taking the oil pan off might as well get a rebuild kit and do the whole job.

You dont need a different oil pan, just get a new oem one, or pull one off a junkyard engine. toykilla, are you suggesting to pull the pistons and rods from the bottom?

I wouldn't worry about it unless you have a hole in it. When you pull the pan off to put the return line in, you can beat out any dents. I put a used oil pan on (already had return line in it) with my turbo. The bottom was so dented that it touched the oil pickup and wouldn't bolt up. I just beat the dent out and put it on.
