cracked oil pan question

[98DC2GSR]

Hey guys. Tonight I had a slight issue with a speed bump and got a little airborne and can't down kinda hard. My cars not slammed but its still low and im just afraid of something happening to the oil pan. If it was cracked sou oil be leaking from the car once the car is off and circulation has stopped for 10mins or so? I went back out once I got a flashlight andngot see any drips or new drip makes on the pavement. If it was cracked even a little wouldn't oil still be dripping out at a good pace?

Off or on, oil would leak immediately if the pan was cracked.

Check your oil level to see how much oil is in the engine.

But think about it a little. If the oil pan is used to collect the oil, if it's cracked, then wouldn't the oil leak out?
So if you know it's cracked, then you're answering your own question.

If your "slammed" the first thing to come in contact is your header. If you cracked your oil pan then it will just be dripping or gushing out. No drip no crack.

These oil pans are thin sheet metal. They will bend, but rarely crack.

For real. You have to hit it pretty fucking hard or puncture it with a pole or something to make them leak.

You're more likely to mush the bottom up, blocking the pickup.

I almost thought you said muck. Would've been an adequate substitute.
