Yep, that's correct, Jerry.  

The early pans have a sort of rectangle shaped embossing between the bolt holes and Lates have sort of a diamond shaped embossing between the bolt holes   

This sounds like another good photo album for the SCG site.

The only difference in oil pans was one style for the early's and one style for the Late's. The late had larger flat bolt area and used a bolt with a fastened lock washer giving it more gasket sealing area.  I use the late pan as long as I have one.Jerry Brown

Again, as I remember, there was a tech bulletin on this subject. I will try 
to locate it but it will take some time to do so because of my current 
work  load. I believe that one sealing change was done for 1966 as the proving 
grounds  report had a favorable statement concerning all the rust on the oil 
pan as being  a sure sign of no oil leaks for that year.
