my pan was leaking slightly in the front. i cleaned up oil with brake clean and smeared some of the grey silicone ford uses for a pan seal on the 7.3 in the joint. let set up for a couple hours and leak solved cuz i also had not time to pull motor until spring.

I spent a week fixing mine after i drained the oil i let it sit for three days then brake cleaned the piss out of it. after it was fully done dripping and drying i placed a good amount of jb weld on the leaking area then took a shop paper towel, and stuck it to the jbweld. I took another layer of jbweld over top of that making a jb weld, carbon fiber. and to this day it still holds that was a year and a half ago. not a drop of oil leaks out of it.
