Hi all,

I hope everyone's well.

Just a quick one that someone might know (65 plate 1.2 500)....

The airbox appears to be sitting on top of the throttle body with no seal (I'd expect some sort of rubber seal or gasket). As a result a fair bit of road grime has made its way into the throttle body whereas the air filter is clean (e.g. not sucking air through it).

I can't seem to find a part number for this seal at all. Is there supposed to be one (I know other older Fiat models do have a gasket).

I've no idea why it would have gone missing - other than as a 'mod' by the previous owner to get some additional HP out of the car.

What do you think?
