Dunno. I hadn't taken the gasket off the block. The gasket only had the ten holes in it. and I couldn't find a replacement gasket so I didn't want to remove it to check.

I actually stayed with the oil pan gasket (reusable) on the stroker. The oil pan not fitting was solved by using the big block motor mounts. And even with 10 oil pan bolts there have been no oil leaks.
