Hi There
I think I upset my coolant flange at the back of the engine. I'm getting a coolant dribble on the bellhousing in that area after doing some work on the crank vent system.
How can I be sure I order the right parts? Without going to a dealer? ECS doesn't support it as it is not US model.
Any tips on doing this job on this engine?

They aren't expensive to buy here, I have bought them from ebay and HSY in the past.
I've seen a few on ebay but can't figure out which design I need.
Part number should be 058121132 and N90746901 for the o-ring.
The local suppliers will be able to confirm it off your VIN.
As for the job itself, you'll need to re-wire your brain to work back-to-front, have lots of patience, and small hands.

Thanks Guys.
It's in a bitch position. Will have to see if I can get a cam in there or something.
I can't really have the car apart for that long at the moment...
OK.
So I replaced the coolant flange. Wasn't the hardest job ever (i.e. sump) and fixed that leak. I got the dual port one and it came with a plug in the second port. That leak is fixed. I gather I caused it be bumping the hard line while fixing the oil leaks.
Anyway, now I have a coolant leak that appears to be on one of the hoses on the oil cooler. I removed the hose and cleaned up the rubber, no holes. And I checked the bore and cleaned up the barb. There was a lot of dry coolant on there. I re-installed the hose with new hose clamps but it looks to still be leaking.
Do you think a new hose is the way to go, or am I looking at replacing the whole oil cooler?
Any tips for new players for that job"?>
TIA
