I am looking for the 1/4" base plate/cylinder that mounts between the pump and the engine. It cracked when I was removing it to change the gasket. The auto shops don't carry this part.

1.6 or 1.8?

It is the 1.8 L, do you have or know where I can get this part or assy?

Probably more likely to find the whole pump.

 

Either new, or look in the for sale section on the board here.

I think the pumps are like $20 on rockauto.

Awesome. I will check it out, thanks.

So I do not see the pumps on rockauto, only the gasket. Mikaleda, could you post a link to the page you saw the pump on?

Weird I took a look and it looks like they don't sell the pump anymore. I guess the next best thing would be to go to the junk yard and grab a pump.

 

Their easy to rebuild and it shouldn't cost too much with a junk yard oil pump and rebuild.

i can look probly have one kicken

I broke mine taking it off a few months ago I ordered one from subaru was $100 and took about a week to get it

New is around $100 from me and I have used ones for $25 shipped.  I obviously don't sell cracked or scored up pumps.  I can put a kit into the pump or include it for an additional cost of $25.  

Thanks everyone, I found a new one online and installed it yesterday. The first time I took it off it broke off, but I was still able to carefully pry it off with a screw driver. I attempted to repair and re-install which was a bad idea because the second time I tried to remove it, it broke off flush with mating surface.

 

To get that out I took a bolt with a nut on it and put the head of the bolt inside and under the lip of the broken off piece that was still stuck in the bore. I then used the nut that was on the end of the bolt to pry forward with a pair of long diagonal cutters.

 

When you re-install the new one, I recommend inserting it without the o-ring in order to get the drive gear shaft lined up (no resistance), then put the o-rings  and gasket on and install.

good idea

i found that if i loosened the front block bolts was way easyer to remove pump without breaking it
