If your 2012 F-350 has the full 5th wheel prep package (with four rubber pucks already installed in the bed) then in order to install the 25K AirSafe Omni hitch you will just need the Reese adapter you referenced, part # RP30156.
I spoke to a contact at AirSafe and he confirmed that the mounting tab spacing on your hitch is 20-1/2-inches which is one of the standard sizes accepted by the Reese adapter. The photo provided shows the mounting slot spacing on this part. Hitches with either 20-1/2 or 29-inch side-to-side mounting tab spacing will work.
Do please note that the Reese adapter is rated for use with hitches only up to 20,000-lb capacity. I was able to confirm with my contact at Reese that they do not offer a higher-rated adapter. Please keep in mind that even though your AirSafe hitch is rated at 25K, when used with this Reese adapter you will have an overall capacity limited to the 20K rating of the adapter.
