I ordered a bunch of **** for my other motor build and in specific, I got the "lower enging block gasket kit" I could see it had the oil pan gasket and some other crap, but I couldn't tell specifically whats in it. I also ordered timing cover gaskets (hopefully they're not in the kit), and gaskets up top (valve cover, spark plug gasket, grommets, etc).

Any ideas?

Hmmm,

My guess is, other than the oil pan gasket,

Rear main seal
Rear main cover gasket (paper)
Front crankshaft seal
Lower tiiming case gasket (not sure about the upper metal guy)

Hows the supersized M50 rebuild going?

a "conversion set" has pretty much everything that doesn't come in a head set, everything below the head gasket
