see, glad I made a fool and asked. I do not have those

thanks for that, appreciated

Fred You are no Fool. I assume you mean your 2 rubber scoops are missing, they just slip into slots cut into that triangle brace. I check mine when I am under the car, they seem to want to slip after the occasional high wind speeds encountered around here.....
The diffusers (scoops) that Silversss cut off, direct air onto the oil pan and are there as long as you have the panel in place, or cut them off.

understood. so I guess am in the lookout for those. Never been too impressed with the higher temp of my boxster car really, and it's getting older now lol. Won't hurt to have them (re)installed this summer.

Watch out for those autumn leaves with these things pointing in that direction tho :/ dunno

Personally I would love one. Not a fan of rtv, especially where it can plug things. Porsche engineers are smart people so I figured they would have retro-ed a gasket if it was really needed. I actually have to reseal my pan as it's leaking.

The LN 2 qt deep sump has a gasket. Maybe you could get one from LN?

Found an old thread where some of the Sages had discussed these previously. Part numbers are included.
