Nah, it's a thing that goes inside the oil pan and is supposed to keep
the oil where it belongs, near the pick up, so it doesn't slosh up the
sides or cornering, braking, accelerating.

I have a "new" oil pan ready to go on and this would be the time to
install such a unit if I can be sure it will fit or be close enough to
modify.

Don't want to "engineer" one myself because I haven't a clue how.
