Default 2pc oil pan vs. 1pc?

Will a 2-piece oil pan (p/n 12561828) fit a LS1 ('99) currently with 1-piece oil pan?
If so, without any mods?

Should. Don't have hands on experience, but I just went the other way-
I had an 01 LS1 with a two piece, blew the motor, had to replace the pan. Now, on my 04 LS6, I have a one piece.

The shop likes the one piece better- less chance to leak.
Plus, with the two piece, there are two gaskets, and they are about $60 (!) each.
