see what the cost for a high volume oil pump and oil pan gasket is. then if u have access to the tools needed to lift the motor and get the pan off its not hard just time consuming. ull need to take some parts off to get the pan out and on a 6 im not real sure what they will be so u may need other gaskets or hoses. i had to take the exhaust lose and move it also the starter had to come out, it made it way easier. once u get the pan out u will be able to look in it to the bottom and see if theres metal shavings there.
