Upper oil pan baffle idea; is it worth trying? Ideas for improvement?

Downside is if it doesn’t work, I have to take out my engine, again. 😅

PS. With the engine stopped, the oil level is at the top of the upper oil pan and this baffle is submerged. With the engine above 5000RPM the oil level drops about 40mm exposing this baffle. Upper oil pan is ~62mm thick.
