    Does anyone have a picture of the oil pan drain hole without the gasket on a Prius v or third gen prius. I think a rubber gasket I got from the toyota dealership (not the blue one that's more commong) and put on last oil change is totally sealed to the oil pan and I've mangled it a bit trying to get it off. Just want confirmation I'm not mangling the oil pan, just the gasket. I've attached a picture for this too.

    Thanks!

    I’ll jar them loose putting a slim, flat-bladed screw driver at the junction of washer and oil pan, give it a tap with a hammer.

    and yeah looks to be the washer; shouldn’t take more than a light tap.
