Default Oil Pan help!!

Hey guys,

So I have a pin hole leak on the side of my oil pan. 2009 FLHP. Don't ask, long story.Have to find a new Indy shop.....
My question is, can I remove this and replace? I'm pretty good in the garage, I know enough to get myself in trouble lol, but I think I have read a few things about a spring or some kind of a trick to get the pan off and on?? Any help greatly appreciated.....

Not permanent, but JB Weld it and ride.

Sorry don't have your main answer.

Mine says it will come out from the rear after all bolts are removed.

JB weld definitely works....I have a hole in my oil pan the size of a pea, I cut a bud light bottle cap to size and JB welded it over the hole....been on there for over a thousand miles with no issues...maybe i'll replace it in the winter, but maybe not ha

there are also seal-sealing plugs at the auto parts store.

you drill a hole and tap it, then screw in the plug.

while stupid as all heck...I jb welded a gas tank leak 20 years ago...still holding

Used to JB weld the primary covers on my dirt bikes all the time after a crash and the shifter would punch a hole in them. I'd try it for sure.
