Nate,

I know you feel better after taking off the oil pan (to replace the steel turbo drain pipe) and it isn't that bad of a job IF you have replacement screws after the socket head screws are buggered up. BUT you don't need to pull the pan.

Attached a hose clamp to the steel down pipe of the turbo drain. Tighten clamp, put big screw driver under the clamp and hit it with hammer. This will drive the pipe upwards.

$123 for the air cleaner bracket!!! Rip off of the century!
