Oil Level sensor gasket change
I believe that my oil level sensor on bottom of motor is leaking oil.
I bought the gasket ($8 from BMW) and jacked the car up to do it.

There is a large metal plate right under motor with fairly large bolts.

Do you think it is easy or prudent to remove this plate with just a
floor jack? Is it structural and needs special attention?

The sensor has an electrical connection and is held by 3 10mm (?) bolts.
Seems super easy if you can get it out.

Opinions anyone? Anyone does this repair DIY??
