I have 3.5 inch Metal Cloak Game Changer and Adams Drive shaft, I hope these skid plates are compatible with my setup

I have the Artec skid with a fumoto valve.


This is the shape of the opening - easy access for a oem plug or valve:

The valve kit came with tubing. Here I’m draining my oil into a jug. So easy!!

A Fumoto valve works fine with a MORE engine and transmission skid.
I changed the oil once before installing the valve. What a mess! Half of the oil stayed in the skid. Lesson learned.

Ah true with the Fumoto. I have the Stahlbus so I have to get my hands in there at a specific angle to get the connector on.
The Votex is kind of the same way with the connector. Only difference might be gas vs diesel, considering a cat can easily sleep on top of the skid plate underneath the oil pan on mine. There’s days of room down there.
