Oil filter access hole on metal skid plate has protruding lip. Rubbing against oil pan resulted in a hole in the pan. Was able to cut and fold skid plate back and weld filler in hole. Could not see what was going on underneath other than dented plate.
Don't think the stealership would have repaired this way of for the cost of a wasted oil change.
This is on a 2011 850 with hard No Nevada miles on it. My buddies 2010 has different protection. You guys that ride in rocks and bottom out frequently may want to have a look and make sure your oil filter access is not eating away at your pan.
