lower bell housing plate

Anybody know offhand what size screws hold down the sheet metal grunge-guard thing that completes the lower part of my bell-housing? What transmission is that anyway? 3 speed standard mated to a 360.

turns out that the part the PO gave me is not even the right thing to complete the bell housing. What I'm looking for is the lower portion of my f250's bell housing, 4 bolts in a trapazoidal configuration. I don't know if its a cast thing or a stamped thing. somebody please help because i don't know what the thing i'm looking for looks like or is called.

I have one that is not the right one. The one I'm looking for has a bulge in it to accommodate the flywheel. The one I have is flattish and too small.

If I still have it is off a 64 f250 with a 292 it is bulged for the flywheel the flywheel sticks below the bellhousing on that truck. I will try to take a pic tomorrow.
