You know, now I'm thinking this might be the gasket between the throttle body and intake manifold. It looks odd b/c it has that extra hole on the side. Since my motor is a KH, the TB is round, not the oval shaped TB as in the MC. Could anyone w/ an MC engine verify this could be the shape behind the TB? The bolt holes seem to be for M6 bolts, unlike the water pump which are M8 bolts. Also I'd think the water pump gasket should be in the crankcase set, not the head set. I noticed in the FA that there is only one part # listed for MC and KH TB's. I guess I'll have to cutoff the excess gasket for my KH setup. Anyone ever done this? Thanks again.
