Default Leaky oil sender

Hi.
Just had my oil pan gasket changed and now the oil level sender unit is leaking! Any solutions other than buying a new unit? Can it be fixed? Does anyone has a used one laying about?
Thanks.

Is it the gasket or sensor body that's leaking?
I haven't tried, but you should be able to pull the sensor with the pan installed.

It's the sensor that's leaking. I might just drain the oil and then pull out the sensor. The sensor is mightly expensive, was wondering if it could be fixed-has anyone done it before?
