Maintain precise engine assembly alignment with this Genuine Nissan Timing Cover Dowell Pin, designed to suit Nissan Patrol GU Y61 models fitted with ZD30 and TB48 engines. This OEM dowel pin is used to accurately locate and align the timing cover to the engine block, ensuring correct positioning during assembly and helping maintain proper sealing and engine timing integrity.
