Post 2007 Chevy Silveraado Oil Pan Gasket Replacement

Hello,
This is my first time here and I want to change the oil pan gasket on my 2007 chevy Silverado with a 4.3L. Can anyone guide me in the right direction? I'm looking for a how to video.

Remove the bolts from the bottom of the pan, put a new gasket onto the pan, make sure you apply the right amount of torque to the pan. When removing the bolts, make a mental note of how tight they were. Grab a digital torque wrench and tighten it VERY slowly, as to see when the bolt starts moving is where the last bolts were set. There are manuals and other things online that will specify what pound torque to apply but it's easier in my opinion to do this.
