oil pan gasket replace question

I need to replace the gasket on my 05 lx special edition and seems the down exhaust will have to be removed. Is it necessary to replace the spring bolts or can those be reused and is there a gasket between the two exhaust pips that needs to be replaced? I'm unclear on that part. If anyone wants to suggest what gasket on the oil pan to use, feel free. Thanks.

Re: oil pan gasket replace question

the spring bolts can be reused if they're still in good shape,
there is a gasket in between the two pieces,
oem is preferred for the pan gasket, however it's up to you, watch out for the little washers on the studs, if you forget about them your new gasket may leak

Re: oil pan gasket replace question

Are you sure it's not residue from oil changes? The filter is right above that area
