Default Name of this gasket??

Went over to five auto parts stores and no one could find the name of this gasket. I know it came out of a head gasket set. Any help would greatly be appreciated.....thank you

Bob.


That gasket is known as Bob where I live.


A BIG help would be to note the vintage. I am guessing you have the dohc 2.3, but don't know the year.

I could not find it individually, or under 'intake' or 'head set', but it showed in the 'engine gasket kit' sets.
It appears that it connects to the crankcase, given the color of the walls. Is there an oil separator mounted that keeps the oil in the pan, but passes the crankcase vapors to the PCV valve?

Added: It will come in the FelPro head set.

I appreciate your help. It indeed was in the gasket kit and took that particular gasket back to oreillys. They ended up opening a new gasket kit and giving that one to me. I have to say no one still had no idea what it was as far as a name. Almost done with this 2011 2.3l in place of my old 2005.

Can you post a pic of what is being attached at that point? The interior looks like an intake manifold 'color' after being used for 100k miles. But. It appears it is on the side of the block. [no 'context' for the pic]
