5.0 xkr. Hoping to reach out to someone that has reinstalled the vacuum pump. I'm going to attempt to remove and replace the vacuum pump gaskets and reinstall it because of a leaky pump. How do I know when I go to reinstall it if the "ears" are correctly orientated? Can it only be installed one way?

Guys, I finally got around to replacing the seals on the vacuum pump. It looks like I fixed my leak. I changed the oil and filter as well. It's not difficult to do at all. I probably saved $400 doing this myself. One thing I noticed is it looks like there's a gasket between the upper and lower sump... and I cannot find this gasket for sale anywhere?

I probably should have explained this better. I fixed the oil leak that was coming from the vacuum pump. While i was cleaning the sump off with brake cleaner, I could see a gasket sandwiched between the upper and lower sump and I wish i could have found a new gasket it for it and replaced it while I was doing all this.
