An engine oil pan structure includes a lower case having a pair of side walls and a plurality of bearing cap sections for connection between the side walls. A balancer device provided under the lower case, mounts on a mounting section formed at positions of the bearing cap section adjoining the side walls. An oil pan covering the balancer device is joined to lower end portions of the side walls. A reinforcing rib having a horseshoe-shaped form and surrounding the balancer device is provided on an external surface of the oil pan, and two end portions of the reinforcing rib are joined or monolithic with portions of a flange section for joining the oil pan to the side walls adjoining the mounting section to reduce noise of an engine having a balancer device. |
