Will a Canton RR oil pan clear the stock exhaust on a 4th gen f-body? I had Mac mid-length headers on mine when I switched to the Canton pan and had to get long-tubes to make it work. Never tried it (or seen it) with stock exhaust though....

Yes ... barely. It's a heckuva heat transfer point ...

I had a ceramic coated and then wrapped "Y" pipe. I even glued a heat shield to the pan to try and keep oil temps manageable.

Before I added my oil cooler, I don't know what my oil temps were. The gauge only went to 310*.
