Default derby cover

I am swapping my primary cover. Got the gasket cover and oil coming. I realize i need to refill the oil through the derby cover. Do i need a new gasket for the derby cover as well.

No new gasket is needed. Simply reuse the one that's there now if it's in good shape of course.

If you are only changing the derby cover you only need to replace the gasket behind it. If you are changing the oil in the primary then you would need to replace the inspection gasket.
