Go to the junk yard. I put a pan from a 5k in my 4kq, and it only
needed a little reshaping with a hammer to clear the radiator. So I
think any I-5 pan would do.
Replacement procedure isn't too bad if you have an electric
screwdriver to turn all those bolts. But you will have to partially
drop the sub frame, so ramps are out.
