Sump bolts and Engine Oil
#2
Four pints if I remember correctly. Before you fit your new sump gasket make sure the tin sump is properly flat as they can distort. I would always do this job on the bench. Crawling about underneath isn't my thing any more. From the "full" mark about 1/2" below will require about a pint to bring it back up.

The silicone gaskets are fitted dry and cleanliness is important. Clean surfaces down with acetone.

Don't forget the sump bolt directly below the flywheel - make sure you don't mix it up with a longer one...
