Default 3rd Gen GS350 AWD Oil Pan?

Just wondering was going to do my first oil change on my 07 Lexus GS350 AWD, and saw a couple of DIY online here which were great help, but I couldn't find the oil pan that was shown in the DIY, The oil pan looked more square (As shown in pics).

It looked like it was attached to the axles, which made me think it was the front differential. I put it off just in case I drained the wrong pan.

This is indeed the oil pan The differential is just behind in the picture (it's a really tiny differential), if you look up you will see the front driveshaft attached to it. The engine oil drain plug is the front tilted plug.

Thank you very much for clearing that up! Spent 30 min looking for the oil pan that looked like the ones on the RWD models LOL
