So I was wondering, are the two o-rings located on the oil filter sandwich plate the same as the o-ring behind the front cover? I haven't had a chance to measure them, but at first glance they look identical.

I'd like to know too though for future reference.

Called up my parts man in town today and got a straight answer from him.

The two o-rings on the oil filter plate are the same part number as the oil galley o-ring on the front of the block. Which according to courtesy's website is part number 15066-SR20T

Now of course, we verified the oiring size based on FWD SRs. I'll be able to confirm it better once I get the o-rings in and can compare.

I have used them interchangeably in the past without leaks. Replaced the Filter sandwich with a Tomei unit with AN fittings for an easy to install and very nice looking oil cooler and filter relocation kit
