@tesh22 99% of the work is dropping the sump, because you need to support the engine from above and lower the subframe to get the sump off. So there is no point at all in just checking it unless you want to do the job twice.
It took me 2 full days to do, admittedly while taking my time, but it's not a job I would be wanting to do again any time soon. So just replace it while you are in there or don't even bother opening it up and hope for the best. Those are your 2 options in my honest opinion.
