I have a leak from the oil pan. I have been trying to find a gasket for in between. the only parts I can find are either an oil pan seal (divided into front and rear) and someone else has said that I need an RTV gasket? The only problem is that I cant find an RTV gasket on the internet. Wich part do I need to replace. Are they the same part?

RTV is just a liquid silicone gasket. You would apply it to the pan and make your own gasket.
