The 914 werks billet aluminum one is very nice. That’s what I replaced mine with because it leaked no matter what I did. I think the PO tightened it down too much and warped it.

The oil temp cover (much like the lower heat deflection tin) commonly go missing.
Besides the cover you'll need the paper gasket & the specific wire grommet.
My Billet replacement also comes with a boot to cover the sender /wire connection.
