Yes, gaskets do go bad on oil pans, I have had this happen to me on a ram van 250. It's a somewhat hard task to replace it, so i would take it to a local dealer or shop.

Problem with Lower intake maniflod leaking oil on 2002 Bonneville?

The lower intake manifold gaskets on 3800 engines are likely to go bad at around 80,000 miles. This is caused from the gaskets being made with rubber and being eaten away by the "So-Called Dexcool" coolant. It is best to replace this gasket as well as the upper plenum gasket with a metal gaskets and change from dexcool coolant to regular antifreeze. This is an expensive repair...so be prepared.
