The oil drain pan is now squared now not the triangular one 

 And info on what oil pan they are using now?

To keep some continuity, it was changed a few years ago to help "standardize" them because folks were adding all sorts of attachments (radios, lights, greeblies, antennas and such).  

 

Oil drain pans should definitely be a rectangular shape, as that is what is seen in the videogames they are based off of:

 

 

The thickness of the pan is up to you.  I went with the thicker one (photo 1) as used in Templar726's build (link here) because I liked the beefier look, but I don't think those are available any longer.  The thinner ones are more readily available, and the 12.5 qt. size (photo 2) seems to be the most popular.  Amazon is out of them, but I found one here.  This is the type Tony uses in his awesome build thread here.
