The OEM part numbers for the crankcase and clutch cover, a.k.a. transmission plug, have not changed since the introduction of the 1330 ACE engine. Gold Plug and Dimple make aftermarket plugs that work although some folks claim the Dimple crankcase plugs break. I've had no problem with my Dimple plugs and have 71K miles and a good number of oil changes on them. The most common problem with the OEM crankcase plug when the new engine was introduced was that some folks did not verify the tool needed, a T45 Torx bit, used an Allen bit thereby stripping the Torx splines in the plug and making it a job to get the plug out. The clutch cover plug is a 6mm Allen.

otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

Gold plugs. Torx and Allen-headed plugs were BRP's cruel trick on DYS owners. JMHO By the way, don't over tighten. I think 14/15 torque Lbs is recommended. Correct me if that's wrong.
