Default Cam cap question..

I figured that this forum would be the best place to answer this question. All I need is a simple yes or no.

My lower left cam cap threads were stripped from the previous owner of this motor. I've been trying to find a replacement, but HONDA does not sell that unit as a single piece. Is the circled piece indicated in the picture the same one that may be found in an LS/B18A/B18B motor?

I'm in need of this piece for my B16A..



Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

stripped the threads on the head for the cap cap?

if what its stripped is the valve cover stud threads you can easily fix that

if the stud is just stripped remove the stud and replace easy as that

the threading (female) that the valve cover stud goes into is stripped. I first thought it was the stud itself and bought a new one but still didn't work. Found out it was the treading in the cam cap.
