Oil filter housing gasket.
Anyone here replaced this yet? It is the gasket that is between the block and the filter housing. I also bought the little rubber seal that goes with it. I figure its pretty straightforward. Was just wondering if you guys have had any problems doing this job. I have a Bentley but you never know. Better to hear it from those that have done it. Thx.

I have done it, just kinda a pain to get all the coolant hoses off.But...
it's pretty easy. I actually used an oil filter o-ring b/c they sent me the wrong gasket. The ring was about 2.5 times the width of the original, but i crushed it right down, and hasn't leaked a drop since....wait just noticed, my work im talking about is on a 12v not a 8v or 20v...but from what you say it sounds simular.
