Default skid recommendations

looking for a skid plate that will cover the engine area. i looked at some but they just say engine skid while some say engine and transfer case and stuff like that. can anyone recommend one that covers oil pan and transmission or oil and whatever else really.

I've wheeled hard for the last 3 years in my XJ and never once had an issue with landing on or near the oil pan. T case another story. i have flat out landed on my JKS skid and its held up. T-case and gas tank first motor later
