Right Stuff in place of standard front cover gasket?

[Agent]

My 00 DII has developed a pretty decent leak at what appears to be the top left (driver side) corner. It's bad enough that I'm getting coolant in the oil. Anyone use Right Stuff in place if the front cover and oil sump gaskets or do I need to order gaskets?

Order a gasket, fix-in-a-can isn't going to cut it.

I wouldnt hesitate to use right stuff on an oil pan. Personally, for a front cover, I would use a genuine LR gasket.

d2, gasket on the front cover.

and definitely gasket on the oil pan.

No, Right Stuff is fine for your oil pan. I was able to place a preamde gasket on my front cover and "tack" it into place with Right Stuff, no leaks whatsoever 500 miles later.

Have you done a D2? It wont work. the gasket has built in cushions to stop it from being over torqued plus the bolts bottom out. then there is the shape....

My fault. I should've read better

Thanks for the info guys! Figured I needed a front cover gasket, but I wasn't sure about the oil sump.
