It seals the joint between the timing gear casing and the front plate at the front of the engine, preventing oil leakage from the timing-drive area. This is a critical sealing component in the front engine assembly — a failed or damaged gasket here will result in oil weeping from the timing cover area, which can worsen over time and contaminate the drive belt or surrounding components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConfirm the complete engine model, serial number, and timing-cover diagram before ordering.

The 3580374 specifically seals the timing gear casing to the front plate; it should not be confused with 3580360, which seals a different joint farther forward in the same assembly. When a customer is doing a full front-engine reseal, it’s worth pulling the complete timing-cover diagram and ordering all the gaskets and seals at once rather than going back for individual pieces mid-job.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43563998838820,"sku":"3580374","price":59.4,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/8ed71662-72f9-45d7-8304-e8323fe5394b.png?v=1787507112","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/volvo-penta-timing-gear-housing-gasket-3580374","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
