Oil Strainer?

Awesome pics, My thought its just a trap, the filter is right next to it, the paper (12R-13414-00-00 GASKET, STRNR COVER) will trap any heavy particles. Now if you can find a gasket is going to be second problem, good luck

Weird response, considering the previous posts already added into the thread. I'm glad you like the pics, though.
