Yes. You can either replace all the gaskets and tighten everything to the
correct spec, or clean the engine with a few cans of Gunk and the local
coin-op car wash and try to locate the worst leak. Oil pans leak because
most people tighten the bolts too tight. This deforms the pan and the gasket
can't do it's thing. Use a torque wrench.
