Yep. It was spendy, but worth the investment I think.
I'm confident the car is good for another 25k miles,
at least. It's still cheaper than car payments.

Next oil leak MIGHT be the oil pressure switch. It's above the oil filter.
Be sure not to strip the threads on the oil drain too! bob

Good call. Yes, the shop replaced the oil pressure switch too. It was
leaking.
Regarding the oil drain, the shop I use offers a custom upgrade for the oil
drain. They cut out the stamped threaded hole and weld in a machined
bushing. The bushing is drilled and tapped for a new drain plug. It's
spendy, so I haven't had it done yet. I probably should.
