How big is this dent? If its not that bad it may save you some time drilling/tapping and j-b welding a fitting to your oil pan.

well the car it was on before was a slammed hatch, so you could only imagine the size of the dent. i think ill spend the money now to get my own oil pan tapped and drilled.

Are you going to have the fitting itself welded to the pan, or do what I did and have a bung welded on? If you're taking the latter, I'd start looking for a bung asap.
