The sump plug washer sits between the engine oil drain plug and the sump opening. When the drain plug is tightened during an oil change, the washer compresses slightly to form a tight seal, preventing oil from leaking around the drain plug threads.

Replacing the washer during service helps ensure proper sealing and protects the engine from oil loss.

Fitment / Position on Car
• Fitting position: Engine oil sump drain plug
• Location: Between the drain plug head and sump housing
• System: Engine lubrication system

Drain plug washers are designed to compress once during tightening to form a proper seal. Reusing old washers can lead to oil seepage or incomplete sealing, which may result in oil loss or contamination of surrounding components. Installing a new genuine Porsche washer during each oil service ensures a clean, leak-free seal and reliable engine lubrication.

A magnetic sump oil drain plug is a type of oil drain plug that contains a small magnet designed to attract and capture metallic particles that may be present in your engine's oil. While this type of drain plug is not exclusive to Porsche and can be used in various vehicles, it can provide several benefits, including:

Improved Engine Longevity: The magnet in the drain plug helps to capture tiny metal particles, such as iron, steel, or aluminum, that may circulate in the engine oil. Removing these particles can reduce wear and tear on engine components, potentially extending the engine's lifespan.

Enhanced Engine Performance: By reducing the presence of contaminants in the oil, a magnetic drain plug can help maintain the oil's lubricating properties, which is crucial for smooth engine operation. Clean oil can also contribute to improved fuel efficiency.

Early Detection of Problems: As the magnetic drain plug collects metallic debris, it can serve as an early warning system. By inspecting the drain plug during oil changes, you can get an idea of the engine's condition and detect any unusual wear or damage before it becomes a major issue.

Reduced Maintenance Costs: Regularly inspecting and cleaning a magnetic drain plug can prevent larger issues from developing over time. Addressing potential problems early can save you money on more extensive repairs down the road.

Peace of Mind: Knowing that you are taking steps to protect your engine from premature wear and tear can give you peace of mind as a vehicle owner. It's a relatively inexpensive and simple modification that can provide added assurance.

Easy Installation: Magnetic drain plugs are typically straightforward to install. They often replace the existing drain plug and require no special tools or modifications.

While magnetic drain plugs can offer these benefits, it's essential to remember that they are not a substitute for regular oil changes and proper maintenance. Regular oil changes with the appropriate oil and filter are still crucial for the health and longevity of your engine. Additionally, magnetic drain plugs may not capture all types of contaminants, so they should be seen as a supplementary measure rather than a comprehensive solution.

• Porsche 356A 1955-59
• Porsche 356B 1959-63
• Porsche 356C 1963-65

Diagram ref no 31

The improved rigidity of the billet aluminium construction helps maintain an even sealing surface when installed, making it a worthwhile upgrade over an old, distorted or damaged original cover.

Magnet Installation

Please note that a magnet is not included with this cover.

The magnet from the existing oil strainer cover must be transferred to the new billet aluminium cover and secured using the supplied rivet.

This allows the original magnetic function to be retained while benefiting from the upgraded CNC-machined cover.

Finished in black for a discreet appearance, the cover can be installed using the original engine studs, with no longer replacement studs required.

What Does the Oil Strainer Cover Do?

The oil strainer cover is fitted to the underside of the engine and closes the opening for the engine oil strainer.

The strainer itself helps prevent larger particles and contaminants from circulating through the engine lubrication system, while the cover provides the sealing surface required to contain the engine oil.

Because the cover is removed during servicing and oil strainer maintenance, maintaining a flat and correctly sealed surface is particularly important.

A correctly fitted oil strainer cover helps:

• Seal the engine oil strainer opening
• Prevent engine oil leaks
• Secure the oil strainer assembly
• Provide access during oil system servicing
• Maintain the integrity of the engine lubrication system

Why Do Original Oil Strainer Covers Fail?

Original-style covers can become distorted after years of use and repeated removal and installation.

One of the most common problems is deformation around the mounting holes caused by repeated tightening of the retaining nuts. Once the plate is no longer completely flat, the gasket may struggle to seal evenly against the engine case.

Other causes of deterioration can include:

• Repeated tightening and removal
• Over-tightening of mounting hardware
• Distortion around the stud holes
• Damage to the sealing surface
• Corrosion and general age
• Scratches or previous incorrect installation

A distorted cover can contribute to the familiar oil seepage sometimes found around the bottom of older Porsche 356 and 912 engines.

Why Upgrade to Billet Aluminium?

The main advantage of this upgraded cover is its CNC-machined billet aluminium construction.

Rather than relying on a thinner plate that can become distorted over time, the billet design provides a rigid and accurately machined sealing surface.

Benefits include:

• CNC machined from aluminium
• Perfectly flat contact surface
• Increased rigidity
• Reduced tendency to distort
• Improved support for the sealing gasket
• Durable replacement for an ageing original cover
• Black finish for a discreet appearance
• Reuses the original mounting studs

For engines that are regularly serviced or have experienced persistent seepage around the strainer cover, upgrading to a rigid billet version can provide a more dependable foundation for achieving a good seal.

Installation

The 53901150 cover has been designed to fit using the original engine case studs.

There is no requirement to replace the standard studs with longer versions, simplifying installation and maintaining the original mounting arrangement.

Oil Strainer Covers, Drain Plates & Engine Lubrication Parts

Oil leaks around the lower engine area are a common concern when maintaining older Porsche 356 and 912 engines. While replacing gaskets is often the first step, a gasket cannot always compensate for a cover that has become warped or distorted.

A CNC-machined billet aluminium oil strainer cover provides a rigid, accurately machined sealing surface and is therefore a useful upgrade during an engine rebuild, restoration or routine oil system refurbishment.

When replacing the oil strainer cover, it is also worthwhile inspecting the strainer, gaskets, mounting hardware and surrounding sealing surfaces. Correct installation and tightening are important to avoid damaging components and to achieve an effective seal.

• Porsche 356C 1963-65

Diagram ref no 31

The improved rigidity of the billet aluminium construction helps maintain an even sealing surface when installed, making it a worthwhile upgrade over an old, distorted or damaged original cover. In addition, 21 integral cooling fins increase the cover's external surface area, helping transfer heat from the engine oil to the surrounding airflow. This provides a useful additional oil-cooling effect while retaining a straightforward bolt-on installation.

Magnet Installation

Please note that a magnet is not included with this cover.

The magnet from the existing oil strainer cover must be transferred to the new billet aluminium cover and secured using the supplied rivet.

This allows the original magnetic function to be retained while benefiting from the upgraded CNC-machined cover.

Finished in black for a discreet appearance, the cover can be installed using the original engine studs, with no longer replacement studs required.

What Does the Oil Strainer Cover Do?

The oil strainer cover is located on the underside of the engine and closes the opening containing the engine oil strainer.

The strainer helps prevent larger particles and contaminants from circulating through the engine lubrication system, while the cover seals the assembly and keeps the engine oil contained.

Because this area is accessed during oil and strainer servicing, the condition and flatness of the cover are particularly important for achieving a reliable seal.

A correctly fitted oil strainer cover helps:

Seal the engine oil strainer opening Prevent oil leakage Secure the oil strainer assembly Provide access during oil system servicing Maintain the integrity of the lubrication system

What Do the 21 Cooling Fins Do?

This upgraded version incorporates 21 cooling fins directly into the aluminium cover.

The fins increase the surface area exposed to airflow underneath the vehicle. As heat passes from the engine oil into the aluminium cover, the increased surface area helps dissipate some of this heat into the surrounding air.

The fins therefore provide supplementary oil cooling without requiring an additional external oil cooler or major modifications to the engine.

This can be particularly useful on engines exposed to sustained higher temperatures during enthusiastic road driving or other demanding operating conditions.

Why Do Original Oil Strainer Covers Fail?

Original-style covers can deteriorate or become distorted after decades of use and repeated servicing.

One of the most common problems is deformation around the mounting holes caused by repeated tightening or previous over-tightening. Once the cover is no longer completely flat, the gasket may not be compressed evenly against the engine case.

Common problems include:

• Warping or distortion
• Deformation around mounting holes
• Over-tightened mounting hardware
• Damaged sealing surfaces
• Scratches and corrosion
• Repeated removal and installation
• General age-related deterioration

A distorted cover can contribute to oil seepage even when new gaskets are fitted.

Why Upgrade to a Billet Aluminium Version?

The major advantage of this upgraded cover is its rigid CNC-machined aluminium construction.

Machining the component provides a precise, flat sealing surface, helping the gasket sit evenly between the cover and engine case. The increased rigidity also makes the cover less prone to the distortion commonly found on older conventional drain plates.

Benefits include:

• CNC-machined aluminium construction
• Perfectly flat contact surface Increased rigidity
• Reduced tendency to distort
• Improved support for the sealing gasket 21 integrated cooling fins
• Additional oil heat dissipation
• Durable replacement for an ageing original cover
• Black finish
• Straightforward installation using original studs

For Porsche 356 and 912 engines suffering from a distorted original cover, or where improved oil cooling is desirable, the billet finned version combines improved sealing characteristics with an additional cooling function.

Easy Installation

The cover has been designed to fit using the original engine case studs.

No longer studs are required, helping maintain the original mounting arrangement and making this a straightforward upgrade during routine oil system servicing or an engine rebuild.

Finned Oil Strainer Covers & Engine Oil Cooling Upgrades

Maintaining effective lubrication and controlling engine oil temperature are important considerations for classic Porsche 356 and 912 engines.

Original oil strainer covers can become distorted after years of servicing, potentially making it difficult for the gasket to seal correctly. Replacing a warped cover with a CNC-machined billet aluminium version provides a flatter and more rigid sealing surface while retaining straightforward access to the oil strainer.

The addition of 21 cooling fins provides another useful advantage. By increasing the surface area of the aluminium cover exposed to airflow beneath the vehicle, additional heat can be dissipated from the oil system.

This makes the finned billet cover a practical upgrade for owners looking to combine improved sealing, increased component rigidity and supplementary oil cooling in a single direct-fit component.

When replacing the oil strainer cover, it is also worthwhile inspecting the oil strainer, gaskets, magnet, mounting hardware and engine case sealing surface before reassembly.

The sump plate forms the base of the engine’s oil sump, helping to contain and channel oil that has passed through the engine before it is drawn up again by the oil pump. It contributes to proper oil retention, distribution, and structural support for the lower part of the engine’s lubrication system. Without this plate, oil could escape or fail to be delivered reliably to internal engine components.

Installed at the bottom of the engine block, the sump plate either supports or replaces the original metal surface that captures oil returning to the sump and often integrates or supports features such as oil drain plug provision (depending on variant). It ensures that the engine’s lubricating oil system maintains proper capacity and seal integrity, preventing leaks and helping to sustain stable oil flow under a range of operating conditions.

The sump plate plays a vital role in the engine lubrication system. Over time, original plates can be damaged by corrosion, impact, or wear and may not seal as effectively. A compromised sump plate can lead to:
• Oil leaks at the bottom of the engine
• Reduced oil capacity or poor oil return
• Increased risk of engine wear or damage due to insufficient lubrication.

Replacing ensures proper oil containment and system integrity, helping preserve reliability and keep your classic Porsche engine performing as intended.

Replace the sump plate if you notice:
• Visible oil leaks under the engine
• A sump or plate that is bent, corroded, or damaged
• During engine overhaul or oil system servicing
• When planning long-term reliability for classic restoration
• If the original plate fails to seal properly
