The gasket is not available on its own any more - only in a full kit for the oil cooler itself, which no one ever changes so most of the kit goes in the bin
I've found a chap in Poland who is reproducing these gaskets for considerably less than Audi charge so I have a couple to test.
On the 32V the oil filter cap is held on with a long M8 bolt so no need to buy a 36mm socket
