you may have bent the lower pan when you were taking it off if you used a screw driver. look by where you pryed it and see if anything is coming from there. i used blue sealant first, but then later after i resealed it i used gray and havent had a drop of oil since.

I would if the upper oil pan was the problem but nice try. I did find out that mitsubishi uses ultra gray to seal, so i am going to try that.
