yes you need it, yes you have to put it in.

I forgot once too. Some will say that they left it out and it was ok, but I've seen to many fucked heads cause someone forgot the dowel pin and o ring.

U MUST PUT THEM IN!!!

if it is what i am thinking of it is an oil squirter for the head. i know we take them out on mini me swaps but i would think you would need it on your setup. you may have to yank off the head and install it.

if it is #'s 9 and 10 i think you have a problem.

I think you're talking about the Oil Orifice Control.

if you haven't fired up the engine, you could prolly yank the head off, and re tourqe it, and be all good.

if you noticed a week later... go ahead and order another head gasket.
