The truck pans are pretty easy to identify. Both rear sump. The 7 quart (Heavy Duty, not F250) has 1 drop down (2 levels) while the much more common 6 quart pan drops twice (3 levels) It's probably just a case of mismatched parts. The T-Bird pan is also rear sump and only drops down 1 time but it is much thinner at the front section, making a very noticeable drop, whereas the truck pans are more or less wedge shaped.
If you are positive of the pan capacity, then mark the level at the next oil change.
