Maybe check your bolts and see if they are loose.When you bolt up something big like an oil pan,it could get hung on a bolt somewhere and you think its tight,then as you tighten the rest of the bolts it can pop loose,and unless you go over your bolts again you can miss it.You work from the middle out on everything unless there is a diagram that tells you different.You also work the sides evenly.So you get first the middle bolt on each side,then the one next to it on both sides,and so on untill you get all of them tightened,then do it over again,to check your work.That is important to do every time because you will always find loose bolts.Just like the others said you can overtighten the bolts forcing the gasket out,bending the area around the bolt,and the pan even could be bent.Just check your bolts first and see if half of them are loose.
