The sump doesn't attach to the gearbox, it attachs to the bottom of the block.
Check the part no.?

it says on ebay its the same sump... i drove over a messed up speedbump with a metal thing sticking out of it and it caught on to the screw and ripped the hole in it... nearly all the oil was gone in a few secs...
