I put my stuff on dry to avoid having areas that the sealant cures quick on/lumpy.
Also, when you put gaskets on, you need to check that covered passages are covered and open passages are open. Compare against the old gasket.

It's kinda troublesome but you do need to see if the oil pump screen is blocked.

Probably so.

If you are going to drop the oil pan anyway you might want to consider installing rod and main bearings and an oil pump. all this costs about $130.00 if the crank is not scarred yet. If you let it go it will probably spin a bearing and ruin the crank costing much more later.
