Hello Rachel,

480 partsbook lists only one type for all manuals of any given
type and/or year of built.
Hope you can get her back in 'last known good' or even better.

This only happens once to anyone, cause it stays with you.
For all those who can do without the experience;

thats why car-mechanics always place the oil cap on the
bonnet lock / hole.
In case you forget it, the bonnet won't shut !
