The parts guy at the Nissan dealer gave me the wrong one, too. I just reused the old one, since it was in good condition.

 

That gasket is a PIA. I got one from Nissan. The problem with it was the hole for the EGR tube meet up was too small so I had to cut it to fot properly. Everything else lined up.

That gasket is what gave me a big vacuum leak when I initially installed the VI.

The cool part is when I reinstalled the gasket it only took me about 30 minutes to move some stuff and reinstall it.

@nd time on VI installation is the trick. First time solo, little bit more time consuming.

The breather part on the top of the engine by the coils is seeping on the back set of cylindres...is this ok or should I replace that little part

I got sick of messing with the EGR gasket, because they also sent me the wrong one TWICE, and I had thrown the old one away.

I just removed it completely and used form-a-gasket.

Problem solved.
