Can someone look at my oil pan gasket and tell me is this right?

[Black Knight]

I put the gasket on, but it seems like it's pushing its self out of the front of the timing chain cover. When I test fit it eariler it was a very tight fit, really had to force it down in the groove. Is this common for these Felpro gaskets to be a little large, do I need a different gasket to go with the alum. timing chain cover, or did I just simply not get it in there correct. If the latter is there a trick to get it in there square?

Well I went out and pull the pan back off, I rechecked the gasket and it looks fine and from everything I can see it looks like it's bottoming out in the valley on the timing cover like I would like it should.

I just wanted to be sure, I haven't put a motor back together in 5 years so I didn't want it to leak and have to do it again.

Doubt it, I took this whole week off just to work on the truck and I can't get anything done. Now I've got to help my dad finish that extra bedroom :rant:
