Default Removable Sump Oil Pan?

There is a 2-pc oil pan for the Buick 455's out there.
Does anybody manufacture something similar for Pontiacs?
They even make a girdled pan to preload man cap bolts

After having so many bearing issues, I'd like the ability to pull just the sump to look for material, and maybe pull the thrust cap...

Rodney Butler ran a two piece oil pan in his Outlaw Street 65 GTO with the twin turbo set-up on it. It has the oil baffle system that uses the balls in the tubes to keep oil from going to the front of the engine on decels. He was the only one to my knowledge.
