Default oil pan location

--OK I'm not a DIY-er so I really dont know where the oil pan is on my 4.2. can I assume it is the very bottom-most part of the engine visible from the ground? I want to install the external oil pan heater as I am most likely going to try to keep my car for a long time. Doing this supposedly greatly decreases wear on the engine on start up and also helps the engine and passenger heat on coold startup--- something my car seems to like less and less.

so the question is where do I attach the con-sarned thing?!?

Default Drop the front composite "skid pan"....

And the oil pan is the big, flat, bare aluminum piece.

Well, it is on the 2.7 - I can't imagine it would be much differently configured for the 4.2.
