This pan supports the black water tank, mine was so bad I built

Once you get inside you may find that rivets are the way to go.
I bought theMcMaster Carr # 98300A150, Economy 360 Degree Swivel Head 
Rivet Tool. It is super handy. When you buy rivets, don't get steel 
mandrel or you will get rust.

What have you used to cut the skin?

I used a nibler like the one linked above.

Is that funky 'Y' a standard drain type and size?

If it is the same fitting as on my 66 it is a standard fitting
