Baffels for the FMS Oil Pan

Does anyone have any baffle recommendations for the M-6675-A460 Rear Sump Oil Pan?

I stitch weld in a flat sheet metal plate horizontally from about half way back and over the sump, after I trim it for pick-up clearance and a hole for the dipstick.

X2 we do the same.

OK Thanks guys.
As I understand the baffle starts at the floor of the raised area and continues all the way back to the rear of the pan.

Is 20 Ga OK?
Any need for any drain holes?

Cut the 4 corners of the baffle on an angle so there is about 1/8", (definitely not more than 1/4"), clearance to the base oil pan in the corners and If it is stitch welded and not fully welded there will be plenty of drain back; 20 ga is fine.

That's very clear. Thanks Randy
