Expert Reply:
If you have a standard fifth wheel hitch for industry standard rails all you'd need is the part # RP30156 which adapts the rail kit of your 2012 Ford F-350 to fit industry standard rail fifth wheel hitches. If you are unsure what type of hitch you have measure the distance between the feet of the hitch from front to back. If they are 22 inches you have industry standard rails.
If you have the B and W Companion hitch part # BWRVK3300 that you referenced it would fit the rails directly without an adapter.
