Many Volkswagen type 1 and type 3 engines do not have an oil drain plug, so the oil must be drained by unscrewing the sump plate completely, without a drain plug it is almost impossible not to spill oil. These sump covers are equipped with a drain hole so that oil can be drained cleanly.
Look at the options to order seals, oil screen etc. or choose a complete set with all the parts mentioned to be ready immediately.
