Default Engine position?

Does anyone have a picture of the engine in the frame, body off? a side view is what I am looking for . I have mine installed what I believe is correct, however now I'm second guessing it. affectively the oil pan lip is at the top of the frame rails, this elevation is what I was told to be correct, that said it's does fit perfect, side pipes to frame, pipes thru the body even the transmission mount is dead on. The engine is right on parallel to the frame, the rear end center and lower control arms etc are exactly parallel also.
But....the engine is higher of course, so the drive shaft angle all beit parallel to the rearend,is offset more extreme. What is the down angle perameters? I think mine if I remember was close to 12-14 degrees, thats to much I thought for a short drive shaft.
Thanks
Daniel
