Does anyone know if there is a gasket that goes above the oil filter housing on a 1990 GMC 2500? I took off the housing about a month ago when replacing the oil cooler lines, and I never saw a gasket there in the first place, but now i'm getting a slow leak that looks like it's coming from the top of the housing, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Great! I just got back from the dealer, and I bought the gasket and o-ring as a set, it cost me $3.87 For anyone else having the same problem the part# is 88893990 Gasket Kit. I plan on taking care of it this weekend. I'll give an update then.

awesome, thanks for the info, I have no idea where these parts go, i just assmed I would be taking off the housing and it would be noticable where they go. I know there is no gasket or o-ring on it now.
