I would think so as well. Looks like the lower pan acts as a mount of some sort or this was for a marine application.

Looks like a crude casting looking at the mating of the pan and the base 3/4's the way up the pan.

I saw an oil pan like the ebay one at the Lone Star Roundup swap meet a bit over a year ago. It was for installing a flathead in a boat. I don't think it sold.

This is how one compensates for the traditional Flathead oil leaks.
