It's the same one I've got listed on the 1st page - if you're in no desperate rush to get the car back I'd allow the garage to remove it first and check the seal and flange design. It seems late cars may well have left the factory with this modified part fitted.

An extended lip to the seal will also confirm this, as well as the additional machining in the flange to give that lip somewhere to sit

I plan to get mine up in the air next week to check the seal has done its job - if so I'll return the flange I bought to TPS - it'll cost me 15% surcharge, but that's less to lose than selling it on, I suspect
