Thought I'd make a seperate post just to give some brief details and offer up some part numbers.

As some of you have read, I had a leak from the top of the oil pump and had to replace the gasket. During tear down, I missed a 6mm bolt that went from the upper oil pan into the bottom of the oil pump and broke the upper pan. I had the pan TIG welded and surfaced, so that turned out okay.

When it came time to buy gaskets, there was a problem figuring out which gaskets my AFC engine took and I wound up getting the wrong gaskets for all 3 locations....lower pan, upper pan, and oil pump-to-block. Even the water pump showed up wrong.

My car was built in 4/95 and the last 6 of the VIN are: 099292.

The correct pump gasket is Dealer only: 078-115-189F (That "F" makes all the difference! The "D" version will not work)

The correct upper pan gasket is: 078-103-609E

The correct lower pan gasket is: 078-103-609G

The correct front crank seal is: 034-115-147A

The correct water pump is: 078-121-004J

I actually drove to Royal Audi in San Francisco yesterday in order to buy the correct oil pump gasket, so I could finish the car today. Nice 430mi/7+hr drive for a $13 gasket.
