Oil pickup - which Victor Reins seal
Trying to identify the Victor Reinz seal that fits the oil pickup tube where it connects to the block. There's on in the kit that's similar but not exactly the same.
ID 24mm
OD 31mm
thickness 8mm
Anyone know if this is right?

I've used the one on the right and removed the one on the left during engine rebuilds.

The one on the right is from the engine gasket kit.
It is one of a few kit parts that I throw away and replace with an OE part.
The seal on the left is the OE seal.

I've seen the result of the one on the right failing. I went to the dealer and spent the $5 or whatever it was to get the correct part on the left.
Some parts you just don't want to risk.

Thanks everyone I ordered the proper seal from Porsche Friday mid day and they had it ready Saturday morning. Any other seals that need the real one?

Personally I only use the Porsche water bridge gaskets as well as they have the silicone ring on both sides verses one side for the aftermarket.
You also need to source a rear main seal with ribbing on the outside that goes all the way from front to back, elring makes this, they also make most of the other older better designed seals.
Avoid the RMS with ribbing that only goes half way like the VR one, they are known to leak early.
