1978 Ford F250 400 oil pan
Hey everyone... I spent the past couple of hours searching old posts, and couldn't find anything on the topic. - Apologies in advance if my search wasn't sufficient.
I need to order a new oil pan from LMC truck, as I don't have a ton of time to go to a bunch of junk yards to pull one.
They have two oil pan options for the 1978 F250:
40-4608 (1) Oil Pan w/ Plug 240 300 4WD F-Series 73-79
40-4606 (1) Oil Pan w/ Plug 351M 400 2WD F-Series 77-79
Which one can I use to replace what I have? I have a 4WD 400, which apparently isn't an option.
Thanks for any help you can provide!

This is a picture taken from the front underneath of the truck. You can see the holes in the pan around the plug, and to the left of the plug. Oil filter on the right.
This is a photo taken from the passenger side, looking down from above into the engine compartment. You can see the top passenger side of the oil pan, basically exploded. No idea how that happened.

that looks to be a rear sump, if so you want to stick with that. Some trucks clearance is a problem with the front sump. You can also by an after market pans from JEGS,SUMMIT. The clevland engines have the same pan also. But they dont come with holes.
