More Questions on tranny fluid filter change

I'm ready for it... got the 15 quarts of Castrol MerconV fluid, Filter & Gasket and the transparent piece of hose, but there still some info I would like to have before I get started.
It's a 2000 Windstar LX 3.8L Automatic with the plain factory tranny cooler (not the towing package). I got Filter part No. FK-266-76011EA (FRAM crossref partt No. FT1167) The parts guy wasn't sure so I would like to know before I do anything first.

Wiswind pictures on the fluid flush process show a 96 model year... mine is a 2000 model, and I would like to know if the return line is the same. If not then which is the return line to the tranny?

Also does anyone know which are the torque specs for the pan screws after reassembly?

Thanks in advance for all or any help!
