Oil Pan Identification
Need help identifying years this oil pan was used on. It is blue in color, dipstick is on passenger side. I believe it is a 5 quart capacity, six with filter. It is a stock factory Corvette pan that I want to sell, but not sure what forum to advertise it on.
Thank you.
Thank you.

If it is a Corvette pan, it would have to be an 80 and later pan.
Corvette switched to the right hand dipstick in 80. The same pan was used from 80 to around 87 or 88. In late 82, Chevrolet switched from using Chevrolet Blue engine paint, to black, so the pan was painted black on the later years, but it was still the same pan.
