No, the mustang v6 uses the t5.that and i think the v6 manuals used a t45 not a t5
You're probably not finding much because this is going to be a pretty big challenge. I don't think the flywheel will work, the 3.8 T5 bell was different from that used on the 5.0 (starter in a different location), the transmission is probably different dimensionally in the '99 (input shaft at least), so overall length might require a modified driveshaft.
If you had a 5.0 flywheel, clutch, bell, and input shaft to swap over it would probably bolt right up.
I found this thread where someone claims success (with a '94 v6 trans & bell which may have a different input-shaft length than yours) which requires some flywheel customization and some tweaks to the v6 starter.

imho, you'd be better of selling what you have (a T5's worth a small fortune) and picking up a replacement AODE with a nice shift-kit installed. You would probably still come out ahead in that transaction and save yourself some stress.
If you're trying to do a manual swap then you're probably better off picking up the full conversion package -- they show up on eBay every once in a while or a donor car works too.
actually the V6 bell housing would work nicely, the starter is in the same location as the larger V8 bell housing. the V6 flywheel wont work on the V8 as the balance factors are different. the V6 used the T5.
add to that though the need for adding a clutch pedal, and linkage, etc. and i think you will find that it is cheaper and easier to rebuild the AOD in the car.
Iirc, the v6 bell moves the starter out farther, to accommodate the larger v6 flywheel.
