Unidentifiable engine gasket

[Martin S.]

Good morning everybody,

 

Looks like there's a slow oil leakage on my engine - caused by this (see foto) gasket. The white thing in the lower left is the oil filter. Can anybody confirm this is the oil pressure transducer line? I couldn't find any part number for this gasket - anybody an idea where to find it?

 

Many thanks,

Martin,

Now I see the oil spots on the white background... 

Lets invite @M20Doc for a look... looks like it may be a fitting could be tightened better...

PP thoughts only, not a mechanic...

That’s your vacuum pump drive pad,  the internal seal looks like it’s leaking. These leaks can kill your vacuum pump if oil gets inside. The hose in the picture is your oil pressure line.

Is it leaking from the oil pressure line or the vac pump gasket

Thanks everybody - that makes sense. It's the oil pressure line. I couldn't find the name for that line and thus was not able to order it.

Great follow-up Martin!

If you need help getting parts...  Dan at Lasar is pretty good with the international part of getting the right parts...

Looks like someone tried to fix the oil press sender line with permatex 3.   And that kind of looks like a steel fitting.
