Can you weld, or have a buddy that welds? I recently made one for my current project. I bracket race, and I wanted a little more oil control for the hard braking we do sometimes at the finish line. I like the Milodon FE pan, but it only has a baffle at the back of the sump going up a little further. You can get brand new reproduction FE oil pans for about $45 at the various Mustang/Cougar/Ford Resto stores, or EBay. The reproductions have the tie-rod reliefs too. The West Coast Classic Cougar ones come bare metal, makes it a little nicer so you don’t have to strip paint on the upper one. I bought 2, cut the sump off one. I happened to have a left over Moroso deep pickup, so I used that. You will likely have a bunch of time into fabricating this ( I did lol ), so if your time is limited you may just want to buy one. I mocked it up, cut a hole in the main upper pan for the pickup to go through, measured carefully where to cut the sump off the other pan, cut a v-notch at the back of the lower sump to fit upper pan, and time to set the location properly for the pickup depth from the bottom. Once all that was done my friend JericoGTX welded it up for me. I had him weld up the rear edge of the baffle the pan comes with to also keep oil from sloshing back. If you have a couple used FE oil pans you can of course use them.
If this interests you at all I have more pictures of making it.

Here’s the pans I used to start with:
