Hello, can I jack up the car at the donut points or not? I think there are 4 donut points, two front, two back. My gasket kit did not yet come in time for this weekend's oil change. All together does anyone have a picture of all the gaskets that come in the kit? As far as I can tell there are two small washers, one for the strainer and one for the regular plug, two larger type gaskets for the strainer. Is this correct?

I do the strainer every other change. The strainer itself is almost always pretty clean. But sludge gets trapped below the strainer...between the base of it and the sump cover. There's a disgusting shot of it in my oil change video. The sump cover is not that big an area and when it gets filled, the sludge can overflow and circulate, rather than sit at the bottom of the engine.
