Default engine pan help

I have what I believe are the original engine pans for my 31 roadster, but they haven't been on the car in years because both are missing their rear tabs. I've decide to try to weld them up and put them back on, but have no idea what the missing rear tabs look like. Does anyone have a good picture of uninstalled pans? Thanks.

Wasn't there a service bulletin recommending removal of one of the tabs to address breakage? Can't recall if it was the front or the rear.

Yes, that would be the removal of the front tab, since the front of the engine, being spring mounted, moves more than the rear.

If you have a copy of the judging standards they have lined drawings of the different pans over the years.
Good luck.
