End plate on gearbox leaking

My mechanic called me to tell me my gearbox is leaking.
He says it's from the plate on the end of it, it has VW on there.
Any idea where i could get one from to replace it?
My Rocco is a 1.6 GT 1988

Thanks

It can be bought from various places on line although not all are official VW, I fitted one when changing release bearing without any issues. the aluminium was quite corroded round the lip but it does get a lot of road salt. Pretty sure you would get one in your local GSF off the shelf failing that a VW dealer or Eurocarparts? Remember going mail order Carpartsforless is a cheaper Eurocarparts.

Dealers still do them, I got a new one about 18 months ago.

Ok thanks for that. I asked him to call and get one, when they sent it over, ti was the wrong part. Going to have to do it myself i guess.
