Hi guys! My car is a Mercury Milan 2008 2.3L 4 cylinder Premiere

I need help finding the proper oil pan gasket. I’ve been through 2 already, that claimed the were a match for my car, yet aren’t. When googling my oil pan, there are two types of pans that come up. The only gaskets that I can find, are the ones for the OTHER type of oil pan, NOT mine. For reference, here is a picture of both:

Maybe I’m blind, but I can’t find any listings with my oil pan type that also comes with a gasket, nor can I find the gasket separately! Maybe somebody could help me? My oil pan had a rubber gasket for sure, I had to scrape it off, it was that old.

Bonus question: Why do 2 types of oil pans even exist for my car?

Thank you guys!
