Try Pinwall Cycle Salvage in Massillon OH[/QUOTE]

Don't put epoxy on it. Buy a factory manual from HD and read the procedure. I pulled the oil pan on my Road King when i blew it up (looking for metal shavings) and it was a fairly easy job. Your Wide Glide might be a little different. I'm not a fan of JB Weld type repairs. If the "fix" lets go on the road you will pay a lot more for a tow and maybe a blown engine than the cost of an oil pan, gasket, and FSM.

Remember that TV commercial: you can pay me now, or you can pay me later? He's holding the oil filter in one hand and standing next to an engine.
