Oil Pan With Plug in the Bottom

[69rad]

Any idea what an oil pan with the drain plug in the center of the bittom of the pan is out of?

This pan came on a 73 350 crate engine 010 block. Big truck or marine application???

Thanks

It very well could be either, big truck or marine. A marine engine has the drain plug in the center for ease of changing oil. A crate engine probably has the drain plug located in a way that it could be universal to a lot of different applications.
