Wrong his engine is a 302 look close at the area between where the engine mounts bolt to the block and the head gasket surface.
See the difference? Yours is much taller.

They look the same to me, also look at the front pic showing the dizzy, it sits well below the intake manifold like a 351w would.

crack smokers, have you tried a 4wd 351w pan that is rear sump. you might also look into a pan from a van perhaps. the 351w block hasnt really changed so the pans should all match up just run a regular volume oil pump.
