Well *&$#! (hole in oil pan)

After parking my car today I noticed a trail of drips leading to my parking spot. Further inspection reveled that the angle "thing" that supports the rear of the oil pan (a 240D feature only I think) has worn a hole in my oil pan. Just 2 days after I started using this car as a daily driver and got rid of my ford too.

I plan to pull the angle 'thing' and the pan and weld the hole up. Should I just leave the angle 'thing' off?



At least I caught it when I did and didn't run it dry!
