cheap diesel parts for Penta d2-55

[aquapore]

I recently has to replace my sump on my d2 55a.
The price for a genuine was more that $500 for the sum and $70 for the gasket.
I bought a new sump from the Perkins agent for $100 and the gasket for $20.
The volvo engine is a Perkins D4042.2 engine marinised by Volvo.
Sump lacks the suction port but I use the dip stick route anyway.
Hope this helps

Regards and stay safe

Thanks for the tip. What was the issue with the sump? Had the gasket gone? Or had it started to rust through?
