2006 oil pan help
HELP ME! I feel so lost.
I have a 2006 Mazda 3 2.3L S. Not turbo. Automatic transmission.
My oil pan is cracked and I’m trying to find a new one, but the 2.3 ones are 500$+.
I read somewhere that the 2.0’s will work since there’s no turbo? Does anyone know if this is true or not?
I also can’t seem to find an exact gasket. Does this mean I have to make one?
I appreciate all feedback and links!

Oil pan …Check at your local auto recyclers in your state. Or in Rancho Cordova 
or if Iam not mistaken your oil pan is aluminum so it can be repaired.
As for the oil pan gasket try Rock Auto , there is a Victor gasket listing
