Make sure it's not split or too many knots for strength . Would think pressure treated be best to endure weight .

could just use use layer of 2" ( H ) x 10" (or 12") (W) x 36" ( L ) . Be easier for car to climb and oil pan be angled . Better yet , use 1 board of 1 level under 1 or both wheels on drivers side . That way pan be sloped for better drainage . Hope I'm not confusing you to much .
