So my plan was to start assembling the 2056 today, but I found this when placing the oil pump into the case. I measured the gap needed to fill with a gasket, and it’s right at 3mm. Do they make a thick pump to case gasket that will fill this space, so that the rubber sealing ring will be in the case instead of hanging out the back of it??
The gaskets that came with the pump are way to thin to place the pump in the correct position. Attached thumbnail(s)
