Hi rpm oil starvation

^ It is comically wide... but might be a decently functional part.

The GTM pan looks strange but there might be a useful function served by the width of the pan beyond that of the gasket surface. The oil held in the “wings” of the oil pan is mostly stagnant in normal street operation. However, I would think that in a high G turn at hi rpm that extra quart of oil in the wing on the inside of the turn would tend to flow through the active baffles into the pickup area to keep the oil level around the pickup high enough to avoid sucking air.
