thats the cam carrier. and it has no gasket.. it uses special LR gasket goo to seal it to the top of the head. how do i know??? i fixed this leak on mine. mine was really bad at the rear of the engine.
i filed both surfaces as there was pre assebly burs that didnt help with sealing, and i used loctite 510
if you wanna do that job ( i know you wont) dont worrie about it yet. mine had oil running down the rear, that i thought was causing my clutch flare.
cheers phil
