Did you get the bolts that go into the side of the pan? There are ones that bolt into the side (I think 4 of them), and ones that bolt into the bottom of the block (which are probably the ones you got already).

I have a 3.1L automatic and I just replaced the seal around the pan.  To get the pan out, you need to lower the right suspension support rail--not nice.  That means you need to raise the front, support the engine from the top, take off the passenger side tire, take off the steering knuckle at the ball joint and take off the pan.  Good luck.
