There isn't one that I know of with cutouts.  Are we talking aftermarket or factory.
The factory 73-76 1/2T all have double humps in the crossmember for dual exhaust.  The later models dont.
This is true of 3/4T-up for 73-80ish.

I don't know of any factory ones with the exhaust cutouts,but they aren't hard to build..I've built several of these for my truck and my friends that are running big blocks and wanted to be able to run 3" or even 3.5" exhaust..fire up the welder and get busy
