Right or wrong valve cover gasket

[dwoodford1987]

So I have this valve cover gasket to do tomorrow but I don’t know if it’s right.

Car is a 2007 3.0si (n52) but I thought the gasket that goes over the spark plug holes is 3 separate parts not 1 long one like the M54?

This is the one I got from gsf


Thoughts on a postcard please........ or comment’s below.

Much love

Real OEM is the go-to place for parts identification,

If the part number checks out you should be good to go.

I’d suggest it’s a single piece to keep manufacturing costs down.

Hi, on my N52 it was a plastic gasket...
