The Reese Under-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit item # RP39FR has a 35,000 lbs capacity if you have the welded-on OEM frame brackets and the Max Capacity Kit item # RP88FR. If not it has a 27,500 lbs maximum capacity when installed on your 2017 Ford F-350.

Yes, the Reese Under-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch item # RP39FR has the same pattern as the Ford Factory puck system.

I have linked an installation video below to help you get it set up.

To make towing with a 5th wheel easier, I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C57008. This harness puts a 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking up to your 5th wheel trailer easier and more convenient.
