U need to drop the sway bar and crossmember with a few inches until u get good clearance on it. I used the copper type i dunno but it never leaks on me.

maybe your oil plug is not secured properly, worn or damaged. or maybe..... the oil filter is not attached correctly. either way you should bring your car to the mechanic. we all know how risky this is. oil is like our car's blood and without it, of course our car might die. lol. but anyway if still things aren't working out maybe you should replace your oil pan already. try searching on google for some parts. or use what i am always using for situations like this (http://www.carpartswholesale.com/cpw/oil_pan.html). cheers and good luck.
