Oil pan grommet [solved]
On my 99 civic ex there is a rubber grommet a few inches from the drain plug on the bottom of the pan. I tore the grommet and all of my oil leaked out. I CAN NOT find anything about it. Is this not normal? Does anyone know a part number?

Sounds like someone added a "custom" drain.

Either that or plugged a hole for a previously installed turbo oil return line, but did it terribly.

yeah it looks like I’ll be throwing a new pan on. 🤦‍♂️. I don’t get why someone would ruin their pan like that. 🤷‍♂️

Re: Oil pan grommet [solved]
I don't think a turbo return line would be on the bottom of the pan though. I don't really know what it would be from.

Re: Oil pan grommet [solved]
I mean, a 100% legit but kinda ghetto fix would be to weld on a small plate to cover it, provided it's a steel pan. Literally best bet is to replace with a new oil pan. Prolly an hour DIY job.

I've been looking and I cannot find a single D16 oil pan that has a hole right there (much less anywhere other than the drain plug hole and some aftermarket with a turbo oil return line bungs pre-installed a lot closer to the mating side). The hole is way too clean to be a DIY job, thus adding to my confusion of why tf it's there.

that’s my frustration! It’s a clean punch and the grommet looks like it was made for it. But I can’t find anything either. I have a expansion plug in there for a temp fix while I wait on a new pan.
