    Part help!!

    My name is John Morgan and i am new to the BMW World and need help.... i just bought a 85 BMW 525 xi... i was driving it the day I bought it and hit a bump really hard and hit the oil pan and now it is leaking from a crack in the oil pan.. where is the best play to find an oil pan? the car is built for a drift car.. so it is lowered like the oil pan is 2 inches or less off the ground... just wondering if there is a skid plate i can buy to keep this from happening again or will i have to make one? or is there a different style oil pan that i can get that is not so deep? that is probably a dumb question but i figured i would ask... i just bought the car and the guy that had it before me did not let me kno that the oil pan had been jb welded before.. just really hope you guys can help me out...
