That is fantastic news! People don't realize that there is no point to make it super tight! The seal is only from the o-ring.

Now for the clean-up; I took off the chin bumper plastic the fan and shroud the skid plate on the bottom then cleaned the crap out of my engine with commercial grade degreaser and scrubbing bubbles. I replaced the form sound absorber that is on top of the skid plate as it was completely saturated with oil.
