Well, I found that in the archives from vanagonparts.com and on Frank's
website.  That looks like the correct number.  I got a number from BD as
091-301-131 but it seems that is not the correct number.  Now I gotta call
the parts place in the am to make sure.  Guess I can change the tranny kit
and do the final next week if I have to order it.  I am surprised that it is
so expensive.  When I got the van two years ago, I noticed some seepeage and
thought it was the tranny so ordered the tranny kit.  Not sure when, if
ever, it has been changed out. Will check and see if it just needs to be
snugged down for now. This will eliminate a very small drip on oaccasion on
my driveway.   Thanks alot for your help, Scott.
