Want to make sure I have the correct BB oil pan for my L78 4 speed. Mine has two steps and two dimples. I have seen others without the step. Does anybody know which one is correct? Thank you
If it looks like this first pic, it's a big car pan. The second shot shows the pan you need....sorry for not having better pic.
second try
In 1968 and 1969, the BB oil pans do not have a two step pan. If I remember correctly, 1967 does not either. I suspect that it's only the BB passanger cars that use the two step pan. I'll have to go through my photos to kow for sure.

The two-step pan is a full size car oil pan. It will not fit in the Camaro.
What did you get the second photo you posted? Is it a GM file photo? That engine looks like it could possibly be an L/89 based on the color scheme.
Got any more of those?

I pirated the picture from the 'net. I believe it was a picture from Nickey showing engine pulled for a transplant. Sorry, but it's the only one I have.
Not sure if this helps, but my 69's 396-325 oil pan was damaged in transport. I found a NOS one - probably one of the last ones on a shelf. Here are some pictures of it before it was put on the car.
