I hope I have some luck cuz obviously I am not as good as I would have liked to think :-/

I have not heard of this occurring either but hopefully my "solution" will help the problem.

You must have been born lucky!

I removed the engine on Friday. Dropped the pan today, Sunday. The first thing I saw was the spring from the pressure control valve dangling from the bottom of the engine/engine mount. Then, as now expected, the pressure control valve sitting in the pan. 

Well, to quote Mythbuster's "There's your problem.". So, now to re-read the install to see what I missed and perhaps add some Lock Tight.
