| Actually, the C8 part is the piece you describe. |

All FEs got that brand new large-runner oil filter adapter in 1968. It was not available before that, though there were some exotic XE-numbered pieces floating around the 427 camp for a few years, but these looked way different.
A more common 427 adapter was the twin sending unit small passage adapter (pressure and temp). These worked fine, as does any FE adapter.
All blocks are drilled the same, so either adapter will work on either block. My favorite is the large passage C8.
There is a different gasket style for the two common adapters. I'm not sure whether the gaskets can be mix-matched between adapter types, but a quick comparison should show you what you need to know.
There is a third type of gasket found on some "horizontal filter" pickup trucks which I know is not compatible with the two types you have - the blocks are drilled the same, but I'm certain you've gotta use the correct gasket with that oddball truck adapter.
