A word of caution , a shop not familiar with Porsche's has a tendency to apply WAY TOO much sealant to the pan . What happens is lots of squeeze out . That squeeze out on the outside is ugly but the squeeze out on the inside can kill an engine . The sealant " worms " break off and can clog the oil pickup screen .

I would recommend you get the new pan in hand and have the Porsche shop install it . If the selling dealer won't allow that then I would have the Porsche shop inspect the install internally with a bore scope. Specifically looking for excess sealant . Also non Porsche shops have a tendency of not following torque specs for drain plugs and install them way too tight . Good luck
