- 1 Rear Camshaft Plug (30mm)
- Vacuum Pump Seal

Timing Chain Option
The factory, OEM timing chain is manufacured by IWIS. We stock IWIS chains directly from IWIS in IWIS boxes. We also stock OEM Mercedes Chains and those are available as an upcharge. The chains themselves are identical, however, so unless you have a requirement for OEM packaging, we recommend staying with the IWIS chain.
