Thank you all for the warm welcome. As stated in my initial post i have an 85 c10 with a 4.3. I need to replace the oil pan gasket and can't get a one piece gasket according to the parts store. Was wondering why, and if the one piece for slightly newer would actually work or if I'll need to use the 4 piece they say is correct

The four piece may be your only option. They worked just fine for decades. Just make sure the surfaces are cleaned very well, and that you add a dab of black silicone to the corners where the end of the rounded pieces are.
