tiny cracks in the oilpan?
is it normal to have tiny cracks in the oilpan or is it from when it was made (cast?)

Mine looked similar when dirty… much better once cleaned. In the sump area and on the outside mine is much smoother looking.

It is fronm the casting. I have seen many pans with those sort of lines. If you look closely you will see the are all raised surfaces so not cracks.

It looks a little rough, but typical of these oil pans.
