    So, sometime this winter, truck sitting out in driveway not being driven, it sprung an oil leak. at first glance it appears the oil pan is rusted thru. Or could this be coming from somewhere else? See pics, what are your thoughts? Cost of oil pan and ease of repair? thanks!

    Repair? Just replace. Find a junk yard to see if they have the oil pan. I don't think you can weld an oil pan.

    looks like a rust hole to me. I would check a junkyard.
