Quick oil pan question

Can someone tell me if a V6 '92 has a flat area of 4"x4.5" on the oil pan, either on the bottom or on the side.

I need to order a pad heater for the winter. It's -18 with the wind and dark right now, don't feel like taking a look for myself so I'm hoping someone knows.

Thanks.

WhEEE Pad Heaters!! those are fun. I dont know about the 3.0, but there was a pretty good spot on my 22re for it. It doesn't have to be flat really. Just use a lot of silicone

Not sure about what your are asking but I think Toyota made an optional block heater. I had a 91 4cyl with a factory block heater so I would assume they made them for the v6 too.

I have also seen heated dip sticks and magnetic heater pads for your oil pan. I looked into this stuff 2 years ago when my truck was sitting outside during the winter and I was driving it every day.
