Ok, Ive got a 98 chevy metro with a 93 block in the car. Ive replaced the oil pan gasket twice, and i just replaced the oil pump gasket in the thing and it still leaks oil! It looks like its coming out of the oil pan from the front corner near the crank. Need help!

I had a similar problem. Initially I used the cork gasket, but that didn't work at all. Then used a silicon sealant and that worked pretty well for a while. But I eventually replaced the entire oil pan. Although it didn't look bent or warped when it was mated to the engine, once I had it out and compared it to the replacement, it was clearly out of spec.
No leaks now.
