Don't know the part number off hand. But I think the 1997-2002 Camaro pan is the same. Do a Search for the 5.3 conversion. I think Satchel just put the camaro pan in his and had to use the corvette oil filter. Maybe PM him for the part number he used. I also noticed Jegs sells a pan for LS1 conversions.
Here is the list of parts I ordered to do the 5.3 swap into my FJ40. I paid $320, but the dealer parts guy charged me wholesale on the stuff. List was ~$410.

12557752 Seal
12558253 Deflector
12551581 Indicator
12551577 Tube
Unfortunately, it's been 6 months and I still can't speak to whether or not it will actually function.

thanks for the info. more interested is the year. does 97 - 02 sound right as per jacks?
I'm not sure on the year. I just found the part numbers and ordered the parts. I'm pretty sure that the oil pan from any LSx powered Camaro will work, though.
The LSx series motors started in '98 in both the Camaro and Firebird...

98-02 camaro or firebird pan are the f body pans. this is what i used for my swap, and i have pretty good clearance, no issues on a trip to moab with it either.
