Just use your common sense, tighten by hand then nip them up. A lot of folks are stripping oil pan bolts and drains by using the recommended torque settings.

I just put a little grease on the gasket to keep it in place when putting the oil pan on.  This is not necessary.  Alot of these annoying drips can be helped by using 1/4" copper crush washers.  That is what I did now nice and dry.
