I've run into a problem on the rebuild of my 251/265 engine. The truck came without the oil pan, but the oil intake was in the forward position. Turns out both my pans are rear sump (thought they could mount both ways, Duh!) Can anybody verify for me which is the correct orientation, and does anybody have a loose front sump 251 oil pan for sale? Thanks, Rob
