personally i would pretend it's a tranny magnet and not touch te thing for 60,000. It's partially a joke as the one i referenced is way to big but "apparently" it is the same size as a filtermag as they advertise over 100ftlb pull forces on those filter magnets. does anybody here have to pry the magnet off there filter with a crowbar? the amount of force one of these magnets can apply may even throw off a sensor or two. we have some around this big at work and if you stand 4-5 feet from a computer screen and turn the magnet you can see the field lines screw up the screen. not sure but with magnets that can slam together so hard they shatter when set over 3 ft apart on a table who knows?

also if you went this route, after draining the oil it takes like 5 mins. to get the pan off, then you clean it off, scrape the silicone from it and the engine, rub new stuff on with ur finger and bolt it back up. There aren't that many gaskets on these cars as a lot of things are just sealed with grey permatex rtv silicone. i keep a caulk gun full of the stuff in my garage now.
