Good luck buddy. You'll be hard pressed to find one w/o a dented oil pan. Most of us just bang ours out. I've run mine like this for years w/o a problem.

What if you somehow you made a mold and managed to make a "lighter and stronger type" oil pan out of the mold?

Hey look at that! An oil pan! Well that was fast.

Yea mine looked like beans did when I got it, maybe a little better. I beat it out with a mallet and haven't had any problems since.
