Question Need Help ???

hey guys I need some help i've been trying to figure out what this gasket or seal is called I need the part number or the name of it cause I've went to NAPA and they seem to give me the wrong part Also I've tryed auto zone and they didn't seem to have anything so I was told it was called a Oil Filter Hosing Gasket for my 98 Ford Mustang 3.8L I tryed to use RVT Silicone on the original seal /Gasket but once I let it sit and dry I started my car it was still pouring out. so that didn't work so I mite have to go to the Ford Dealership so in the first picture is not the part I need because I Noticed it's for a V8 not the V6 3.8L. So in the Second Picture is what I need but, does anyone know what the gasket or seal is called ? Remember it's the Oil Filter Hosing Thanks Guys !

no, it's not an "oil filter housing," that's the oil pump. you probably need to buy an entire timing cover gasket set (or a new oil pump) to get the oil pump seal; I don't think anyone sells it separately.

Thanks Bro for the help I Found the part on Ebay for $12 Dollars because none of the Auto Places had this Part and the Dealer Had it but, they wanted me to buy the whole assembly which was $400 dollars which is ridiculous but, all in all I really want to say thank you for your help your a life saver and also I'm glad i've found this forum basic if not I wouldn't have found out the name of this damn part.
