Default Oil pan needed for a LS3

I have a friend with a Heidts front subframe in a 69 camaro. It has the Rack and Pinion. The motor is a LS3. The oil pan hits the r&p before it lines up to the motor mounts. He added to the motor mounts but now the driveshaft angle is terrible and you can tell by looking at the motor it is tilted back.

Cant bring the back of the motor up because the header flanges are hitting the floorboard.

Does anyone know the correct oil pan to use? Other option is to modify his pan. The very front 2"or 3" is where it hits.

The pan he has looks to have about a 2-1/2" sump in the front and it needs about a 1/2" sump in the front. Is there a LS oil pan like that?
