Oil Pump insert in block missing

[tparkerxj]

Hi All,
I am rebuilding my 2000 Jeep cherokee 4.0. I got the block back from the shop and was putting on the oil pump when I noticed I am missing the little insert that sticks out of the block that the drive gear goes into. It sticks out of the block about a 1/4 of on inch or so. You can see it in the middle of the block on the left side in the image from the web. Any idea what is called and where to get one? I can't seem to find them online, but I don't know what it's called which makes it tough to search for, LOL.

Thanks
Tom

You can try searching on the part number to find other sources (maybe even a local Jeep dealer)

Awesome! thanks. Weird it isn't easy to find a reference for it.
