Is it possible to reuse the oil pan gasket from a 91 chevy cavalier 3.1 vin T? Seals fine, pan is just bent.?

The pan is just bent, it seals fine. Do I need to buy a new gasket as well?Is it possible to reuse the oil pan gasket from a 91 chevy cavalier 3.1 vin T? Seals fine, pan is just bent.?

Spend the little amount of money and get a new gasket. Look at it this way, new gasket now $ amount vs,, the oil you need to fill it back up, or a tow + time/$ to fix the leak again = more than the gasket will cost
put a new gasket on it, it's cheap compared to having to pull the pan off again when you find out that it leaks after you start it up.
i would not risk it. the amount of labor to pull that pan back down to replace the gasket is just not worth it.
yes buy a new gasket...you DON'T know the seal is fine unless it fits YOU somehow and you're able to test it on yourself.
gaskets are cheap buy a new one
