Oil filter housing gasket is a paper gasket. The oil filter assy is held on with 5 allen bolts. you will need a 6 mm allen wrench, and you get to it from underneath. if you use any RTV or other sealant, apply a very thin film only with your finger. It should look and feel like almost nothing. If you put on more, a glop can plug oil passages and ruin your new expensive engine. You should try tightening the bolts FIRST!

Oop, that will be confusing. I meant to say the mechanic says there is a
leak at the OIL filter housing gasket, not a fuel leak like I mistakenly
wrote in my previous post.
