Are you putting on a new pan? Without having the pan out to clean all the oil off I think it will be jut about impossible to get any kind of paint to really stick! I jut don't see it possible o get it clean enough while still under the truck. Why do you want to paint the pan just curious?

So you have the motor out? I would say use a high temp paint so it doesn't burn off from heat. You can find that in tons of colors nowadays

Installing the Oil Pan with the Engine Installed - ( The Hard Way ! ).
I have left myself ( a way out ) the option of removing the Engine
to complete , if needed.

So far it is time consuming, but appears it will come together.

The Oil Pan I purchased had twice the thickness on the front side than the original - I almost got in. Compared two pans a second time, and their is quite a bit of size difference.
Crazy Me !
Hopefully, my second aftermarket pan will slip it like butter.
