i dont really want to reuse my old pan, as nearly all the components for this motor are brand new it would bug me putting on a used pan

recommendations are greatly appreciated, part numbers too if you have them to pans that will work.

Your L98 will have a 1pc rear main seal, which is not compatible with older, 2pc seal oil pans. There are various replacement pans out there by several well known manufacturers, most would be steel at a lower price point.
