Yes sir. That combined with the built in windage screen makes me think this is the right direction. Added photo now with the tray in it as it comes (can’t help myself to take everything apart)

2) The area behind the oil pump does not have a deflector but it looks like they created a passage on the passenger side of the pan where the oil could rush to the rear of the pan but then bounce off the rear wall and enter the oil pick-up screen area where the oil would be trapped by the oil pan "gates" that would not allow that oil to go forward.
The gates would also allow oil to pass thru the oil gates to the screen.

3) Looks like the oil pan has a scraper located on the passenger side of the pan that would funnel oil to the sump of the pan too.
