When you get under there you'll see that you have to remove the flywheel cover and possiblt the whole exhaust manifold or half of it, if you can manage to disassemble it. From there you will have all the oil pan nuts visible. Get an OEM gasket to ensure proper fit and durability. Use honda bond or some other kind of gasket sealer to hold into place while installing.

did you retap the threads or did you just try a new bolt?

good luck! its not that hard to do but make sure to drive a short time after replacing it and check for leaks. when i changed mine, i had oil seeping through the gasket and i had to tighten it up a bit on certain places. also, those studs can break easily so be careful!
