    You have an 11D engine with the correct ALUMINIUM sump.  It clearly has the “D” part number cast into it, visible in the new picture but the quick and easy way to tell at a glance is that it is has a basically “square” section with a stepped flat bottom whereas the Perfo steel sump is rounded with few straight lines.

    From your picture I am pretty sure these are marks from the casting.  Unfortunately I no longer have one here I can check to make a comparison.  Perhaps the other reader has one he can check?
