Well Looks like its a new Pan, went to unscrew back out and the bloody plug has gone and fell right through to the inside. I must try and take things slowly from now on and study things before I go ahead and work on them.
Anyway has anyone changed one before ? gonna try and find guide somewhere, Ill probably get new bolts as well and I'm sure there will be a seal / gasket too.

Id just put brand new oil in yesterday before threads stripped, but it had been standing empty or very little in for a good few months before that as it had a leak at the front but changed the flange and seal.
Spot on Mate looks easy even for me.

The bolts are not an odd size if you need some, standard metric M10 iirc, any engineering supply place will have them just take an old one with you.

There's a Great place local to me, they have just about every bolt you need for full rebuild.

Think this is all I will need, https://www.paddockspares.com/checkout/cart/ but might get bolts from my local place they will be a lot cheaper, also washers as Paddocks don't have the part number and those that do are very dear just for washers.

Will take bolt and washer to my local place they usually match them perfect but sometimes they don't have the correct length so will have to make sure with these.

Only went up to get one bolt out but ended up taking the hole lot off. Will take one to shop tomorrow, if they have not got any same size will just clean up old ones as they are not to bad, very surprised I didn't snap one or get one stuck knowing me.
Does anyone know the correct Torque for when they go back on? will also give the inside a good clean too.
Please don't say theres something else damaged in there as there might be a Rolling Chassis up for sale, don't think I can handle another mistake for a while yet. It looks OK to me anyway.
