NH WTB - SBC Oil Pan

[ohboy321]

I am looking for an OE SBC Oil Pan - My parts book lists GM part number 359939. This would have the dipstick tube on the drivers side and the front measures 2-1/4" making it an early thin gasket pan (reference pic below). I will clean and paint so it doesn't have to be perfect. The one I have is dented/smashed on the bottom and the baffle prevents me from banging it out.

Bumping for the weekend....

Still hoping to locate an SBC oil pan that isn't dented.

My 327 is a 67 vintage. I'm not sure they stamped the GM number on the oil pans, but I am stripping the paint off of my dented one this morning, so I may have a different answer later.

My 1979 parts book list the 359939 oil pan as being used on 58-79 small blocks.

The dipstick on the drivers side and the 2-1/4" measurement for the thin gasket are what matters most.

Thanks for checking. After stripping the paint off the one I have and banging some of the dents out it may be salvageable. I'd still like to find a better one, but if I get to a point that it is preventing progress I will use the one I have.
