get the "plastic" gaskets from ebay. Or buy some aftermarket ones from Ihor or pineapple.

You have made a lot of threads about a lot of things. Just remember to search sometimes.

Use a gasket on the UIM and LIM use Hondabond for the oilpan.

Correction. right stuff for Imports is better

Hondabond is easy to find. Just go to your local Honda dealership. it cost 14 bucks a tube. You will only need one for the oil pan.
