No, the metal cap has the part number v 003 519 089 D; It could have been that the original seal was a part of this cap (as one unit), although I cannot tell. I am working on getting a photo of this part.

I've never had to replace one of these seals, but I have a NOS one on my shelf, just in case. It is just a red rubber seal cast around a steel skeleton with the usual garter spring. I've never noticed a "metal cap" but I wasn't looking either. Like someone else, I wonder if the cap you're seeing is part of the old seal, or a part that someone made to adapt a different seal to work in your VW. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/ ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
