Resolved 2G Oil filter housing gasket

[emeracing]

Is there a gasket between these two? The one in the pic is not mine but mine is leaking and was wondering if there is a gasket in between the two that I can change and where can I get the gasket because oreillys doesn't have it. Well it doesn't show up in their system.

i found a few online for 4 bucks. "Oil cooler inner o-ring" . When you change it make sure you get it good and tight. Not sure if there is a torque spec for it, but keep an eye on it for a bit when you are done.

Be careful not to over-tighten the hollow filter bolt as it can crush the cooling fins. Torque to 29-33 ft.lbs.

There is a paper gasket between the OFH and front case, roughly triangular in shape.
