I recently had my engine rebuilt and I did not remove the oil filter bracket...the machine shop did, so I do not know exactly what goes there as far as a gasket or o-ring or anything like that. I searched the FSM and it wasn't very clear on this particular part.

Does anyone know if its just two o-rings, or copper rings, or is there another type of gasket for it?

If anyone has a guide, reference, etc. on installing this part, I'd appreciate it.

Specifically, I am referring to the part where you OIL filter screws in and there are four bolts holding it on to the block. I can provide pictures if that will help.

Thanks in advance.

Looks to me like it is going to take a gasket with some type of oring built in.I cannot find any good info on it ,i am more familiar with the KA engine. You might want to post on the SR forum,im sure there is someone there that can help you.Your engine overhaul gasket set should have come with one in it i would think.
