Default Oil pan question?
Here's a question about pans with a flat front section are they bad at getting oil back to the sump VS a pan with a slope? Is that something to worry about or ?

Flat front section is fine, most oil control issues usually happen under braking from my expiriences.

Slippery hot oil won't stop till it gets to the bottom no matter what.

l vote sloped. Windage is a big problem with these engines.
