It has a painted steel stock looking oil pan with no numbers stamped into it. From pictures it looks identical to the 699/187 pans with the notch on one side. The 440 came from a 73 Newport I am told and has a 72 build date on it. I am trying to check the accuracy of my dipstick as per Mopar Action tech topic but am unsure of the original capacity of my pan. Any ideas? The sump to the rail at the lowest is 4 3/4" and 5 1/4" and the deepest.

Unless those dimentions ring a bell with someone I'd put 4 qts in the sump with the car on a level surface & see if the stick reads full or a qt low or? live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth
