HELP, looking for a Y-block Thunderbird pickup tube that goes into the pan and connects to the oil pump.  This is a Thunderbird only part.  Thank you in advance for any assistance!

Check these vendors - they usually have used parts - CASCO, Hill's and Prestige

I have both the Thunderbird and HD truck oil pans sitting here and was able to confirm that the oil pan oil pickup assemblies are the same for both.

Thank you Ted,  I have an F100 truck pan here with the tube and it is similar to the Thunderbird and it may work.  I bought a good used one and am getting my original repaired.  I will have an extra when I need it.  You can't have too many spare parts!

To be clear, there is a difference between the HD truck and all other truck pans and pickups.  If the f100 pan is correct for the f100, then that pickup is not the one you need.

You can see the differences at this link:
