Question oil pan question

Okay, I had a bit of an accident and ran off the road into a ditch. Somehow the upper suspension arm smashed my transmission oil cooler lines. While I was cutting out the smashed sections of lines, I noticed a hole in the side of the oil pan. I still show a full oil level on the dipstick. Is the oil pan double walled or what? This is on a 2001 cherokee sport, bone stock.

Not that I've seen - looks like you've got a patch job in front of you.

How you want to patch it depends on your skill and taste (and, of course, whether or not you decide to just replace the thing out of hand - which is usually the best course anyhow.)
