Yesterday I realized I had the wrong gasket (dipstick on wrong side), so I ordered a different from Advance Auto and returned the first one. Today I found the 2nd gasket is also wrong (curve in back of pan smaller than gasket). I think I found the right one finally, which I will get tomorrow. Hopefully the 3rd times the charm.

The 350 engine I have was made in the 1980's, in 1983 according to the research I did. I had some trouble remembering what vehicle to do the search on, but now I think I remember. 1983-ish for the engine, 1990-ish for the serpentine belt system, and 1971-ish for almost everything else.
