Default Replacing oil pump

Are the LS1 oil pan gaskets reusable? I am replacing my oil pump and know that you have to drop the pan to get to the pick up tube just not sure about reusing the oil pan gasket.

Yes, you reuse the oil pan gasket when you swap the oil pump.

I reused mine on my new shortblock and have no leaks.
