Default LS6 Oil Pan Assembly?

I have a potential buyer for my LS6, but since i'm re-using my LS6 oil pan assembly it's a bit of a turn off for people. I'd like to tell them exactly what they would need to buy or maybe i can look into getting it myself.

So far this is what i've come up with:

LS6 Oil Pan
LS6 Oil Pan Gasket
LS6 Oil Pan Bolts
LS6 Oil Pan Level Sensor

Anything else i'm missing that i'll be re-using to keep my wet sump oiling?

LS6 Oil Pan- http://www.ebay.com/itm/121126391407...84.m1423.l2649 $150

Gasket- http://www.ebay.com/itm/390614827666...84.m1423.l2649 $40

Oil Pan Bolts 2x packages of 10 (14 bolt oilpan)- http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/results.cfm

If i wanted to go all out, could purchase arp bolts. But i doubt it's necessary.

I dont under your question. Why would people be concerned or turned off with an LS6 oil pan in place?

Are they using the engine for a NON Vette application.

Replace it with a non bat wing LS2 oil pan. Looks just like the LS1/6 pan but without the wings.

I'm sorry if worded it incorrectly.

There will be no oil pan with the LS6 motor i'm selling. I'm re-using it to install onto an LS7 so i can run a wet sump. People are turned off by the fact they have to buy an oil pan to make the LS6 work with their application.
