This pan would be a factory pan for a pickup. Get ot from either a dealer or salvage yard. I think they are like $25 new from a dealer. Just make sure to get a matching filter and gasket kit because the fluid pickup will be lower.
You can search this forum and you should find some info on using truck deep pans.

I have a bigger cooler w/fan & deeper pan. My car is not lowered and I have to be very careful of what I drive over..I may end up putting my stock pan back on.

I stepped back from the TCI finned super-deep pan to the
truck pan because I was collecting too much yellow paint
on the drain plug. Truck pan is not the lowest thing in the
undercarriage and if you do tag it, it's steel and can take
some abuse. '02 Silverado is a good app to reference if
you want the drain plug.

Rossler offers an exclusive moroso fabbed pan. Pretty sure it holds about two extra quarts. Clearance looks good as well. And on the topic of added fluid, there is usually always a temperature reduction from this. It may not be 20 degrees(closer to 10) but this added benefit is only adding longevity.
