Re: '97 Taurus GL 3.0L, 152K: Oil Pan Leak?

Actually, with this method, either you "chase" the existing hole with the point of the screw or you use a sharp punch to open up the hole enough for the hole to accept the screw. Either approach would create minimal or no concerning chips or filings. One would hope that the pickup screan and the magnitized plug would do their job too.
