This is of special interest to me at this time.
I am working a diamond B. I took the oil pump out as it was totally covered with gunk/sludge. I was curious about what I found, that is....NO GASKETS, anywhere on this pump ??
Well, I went to a parts book. Sure enough there are several oil pump associated gaskets shown !!
-one where pump meets blk;
- one one at bottom of pump... NOT SOLID as shown in your pic, but only sealing perimeter of plate.
-oil pump screen cover.
My messes up pump had none.
