The Nissan Laurel C33 Engine Block Oil Taper Plug for RB20 engines is a critical precision component designed to seal the cylinder block at the dipstick tube interface. Installed in a tapered machined hole near the oil pan mating flange, this plug ensures the dipstick assembly remains properly aligned while preventing oil leaks from the sump or internal oil galleries. By maintaining accurate oil level readings and system pressure, it safeguards the performance and reliability of RB-series engines in both daily driving and high-performance applications.
Constructed from durable brass with a precise M10 taper, this plug allows straightforward installation and removal during routine maintenance. One plug is required per block, and it is commonly inspected or replaced during oil pan gasket servicing, dipstick tube repairs, or complete engine rebuilds. Maintaining a secure seal protects vital engine components such as crankshaft bearings, camshafts, and oil galleries from pressure loss or contamination, which can otherwise compromise performance and longevity.
