96-2000 Contour or Mystique, for sure. Probably the 95 as well, but I'm not 100% certain on that.

Somebody else will have to weigh in on the Escape...

Get the 04 and newer (might be 04-07, not sure if the 08+ are still the same or not) Ford Escape oil pan, it has the additional baffles to prevent oil starvation around hard corners. Call Bill Jenkins at Team Ford, he will get you what you need. Team Ford Parts Online.

Cool thank you a lot guys. Went to the wreckers, got a pan from a Cougar, same year and same engine.
I got a felpro oil pan gasket today as well, as that is all i use for my supra, so it should hold up fine for this car.
thank you for the recommendation on that pan, but this is just a daily car, no need for the extra baffles. Plus i got one locally for 50 bucks.
All of this done today within a few hours in the morning. Tow truck is coming in 20 minutes to have it sent off to a shop.
