what instance?

I don't make a habit of remembering each and every instance, but I think that Lucky Star and Insufficient Direction would be good places to start looking.

One of Gintama's OVAs used a part of the first One Piece opening. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ivQCprOAWE

That was for Jump Festa, an in-theater showing designed to specifically showcase titles running in Jump. Since both Gintama and One Piece are published there, it was probably pretty straightforward since the rights were already in-house.
