The C4 and C6 are of course newer and much more popular. The MX Cruise-O-Matic has its roots in the Ford-O-Matic which was introduced in 1951. The oil pan for the MX is part number.
B5SZ-7A194-A - PAN ASSY. - OIL
The B5 means it was first used in 1955. The Thunderbird and certain large Ford cars used the MX-COM in some of them. But even then, nobody seems to be reproducing it for those cars, either. At least that I could find. A good used pan is likely the best option if yours has issues.
13 1/8" x 10 15/32" / 14 trans pan bolt holes.
Fits '55/57 T-Bird / '56/57 Station Wagons with 292 4V's and 312's / all big (MX) Cruiseomatics 1958/67.

Thanks for the info. It looks like some clown used it as a jacking point at some time, without a block of wood, so it's a little pushed in, in a couple of spots, which may be contributing to it leaking from distorting the whole pan.

Unless crushed you should be able to flatten with an anvil or some flat surface. Same for the flange. Will probably be easier than trying to source replacement.
As far as it leaking, they're supposed to. If it stops leaking you know you have to add fluid
