We have exactly what you need, though I believe you meant E16 as there is not an E5 hitch from Curt.

The Curt OEM 5th-Wheel Hitch Legs for Ford Super Duty Towing Prep Package # C16017 will fit in the puck system of your 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty and work with your Head Unit for Curt E16 Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16515.

These legs will work with Curt E16, A16, Q16, Q20, and Q24 hitch heads.

I have added a link to a video review of these legs for you to check out as well.
