where does this peice go? In my original Corteco gasket set, there was no mention on what to do with it, so my teacher and I couldn't find refrence to it in the manuals we did have ( 1974 Motors manual, and a 1978 Motors Manual
). so we left it out. well, I'm dropping my oil pan tomorrow to replace oil pump, with another new oil pump ( Melling ), so I went to the parts house and got a new oil pump, oil pump drive, and a oil pan gasket set. well this gasket set has the washer so it HAS to go somewhere? can it effect oil preassure? reason I ask, is I still show 3 PSI at idle. thought I fixed it w/ rocker pushrods, but I fired it up, and it showed 3 PSI, so i quickly shut it down ( might have ran for 5 seconds )
