[DeTomaso] Oil pan gasket recommendation?

[adin at frontier.net]

IF the oil doesn't drain back "properly", during a long pull (try 5  
mile WOT on the salt) the pan will be dry.

Are we sure the puddle came from the pan and not a vavle cover? (or  
somewhere besides the pan)

Is there such a thing as toooooooo much oil pressure?   (I see cold  
starts in single digit weather)  IS the old wive's tale of "washed  
bearings" true?

Is there really a Santa Claus?
