Description
Front-sump engine oil pan for Cummins 855 Big Cam and N14 series engines, replacing OEM 3046951. The PAI 141282E is a steel pan with a 44-quart wet sump capacity, factory-painted black, with a 1-18 drain plug, integrated pickup tube, and 36 mounting holes — a direct drop-in for the OE pan. Sold without gasket or hardware; pair with the appropriate gasket kit and bolts at install.
Signs You Need a New Oil Pan
- Cracked or holed pan after road impact or off-road damage
- Persistent oil leaks from the pan flange or sump that fresh gaskets won’t seal
- Stripped or pulled drain-plug threads beyond repair-insert capacity
- Heavy corrosion or pitting compromising sealing surface
