David, Folks,
I believe the picture is not a good one. I think that web area that touches the cork seal is straight and OK. So does a person place the seal up into the engine. then bring the pan up to that?? This is very similar to the Allis WD series engines I am familiar with. slightly different shapes but same idea. Best way I think is to have the engine on a stand upside down and install the pan.
Regards,
Chris
