Oil pan leak - wrong pan?

Engine only has 2000k since rebuild. Mechanic replaced rear main anyway, but it's looking like the '73 pan on the '68 block may be the problem. I originally ordered a 68 pan gasket, but the '68 used holes to align the end gasket Our 73 pan has no holes) so we had to order a 73 gasket kit which used "shoulders" to hold the ends in place. We're wondering if maybe the 68 and 73 are slightly different diameter?

When it was rebuilt did he offset the rear main seal so the seams aren't flush with the block? Did he use a little dab of sealant?

Only reason I ask is it can be a problem if installed incorrectly.
