My 292 came to me with a rear sump pan and after I removed it I found that it was originally a front sump pan. Someone before me had cut the oil pan mounting flange off, turned it around and weld/brazed/epoxied it back on. One corner had been massaged (as they say in the hot rod magazines) with a ball peen hammer to clear the oil pump, small sheet metal pieces were welded into the corners and the oil pick up tube looked like a pretzel. It isn't pretty but it didn't appear to leak. I think with care and planning someone could do a better job. Its no longer straight as it was extremely difficult to remove.

I did that very thing about 42 years ago when I put a 292 in my '33 Ford pickup.  I have a flathead in the truck now, but that 292 with 312 pistons and that pan is still sitting in my barn.
