With the small feed hole to the front Robert. Don't use any sealer on it as that can block the oil feed to the turbo (which is bad).

Old versus new:

i know the smaller hole to the front lol im not that bad ha ha

what i mean is ,is there a certain way for the gasket to be upside or down side if that makes sence? cos one side is a "ridge" and the other side has an "indentation" ....

Trust me. I've seen boys removing the dashboard with a pitchfork. You may not be simple but the next boy to read the post could be lol.

I've never noticed any problems either side up but I usually fit them with the groove on the top. (Like the one on right in that pic). Not sure if that is correct but I haven't seen any hassle so far mate.
