So got the engine in the K member and decided I wanted it off the dolly and on the wheels to roll around easier. Got left wheel on. Got right wheel on. Jacked up k member on right side to slide out dolly. Slid out dolly and then it slipped off the jack, whole shebang tilted backwards causing oil pan to hit the concrete floor enough to dent it. Pan lip still looks flat as do side walls. No holes or cracks in pan. Also I see no gaps between lip and block and gasket is even

Since it's in the sump portion of the pan then I wouldn't worry about it as long as the center isn't pushed up near the pickup tube, I've seen plenty of mangled pans over the years from people bottoming them out or running over stuff.
