Unless you disturb the oil pan pipe assembly, it should remain as it was. Having said that, however, it wouldn't be a bad idea to check the alignment of the pipes with a target gauge as long as you've dropped the pan. Not only will it check the alignment, but you will be able to spot any partially clogged pipes. Also would be a good time to clean out the oil pan and get rid of any sludge that's built up.  -Bob
