Default Transmission plug gaskets

Does anyone have the part number for the overfill plug gasket on a 2001 ls430 transmission, I have one for the drain plug crush washer and the part number is 35178-30010.

Looks like the fill plug gasket is 9030106196, is that what you're after?

I'm confused...
I didn't think the 2001 A650E's had on overfill port..?
Only the A761E uses the overflow plug/tube hence the absence of a dipstick.

I only have first hand knowledge of my 2006 but AFAIK there is no overfill port on the earlier 430's.
Maybe someone else can chime in to confirm..?

It looks like from this picture of a 2001 transmission that it does have a fill plug around the middle, I will go ahead and check on my car later though.

The dipstick tube is the fill port.

I meant to say the overfill plug, I guess I don't need to open it though if I have the dipstick I can just keep checking the level as I fill.

Now that I'm looking at this picture I'm noticing the dipstick is connected to the pan, how do I take off the pan with the dipstick? I wanna replace the pan gasket because its leaking and the filter as well.

There is no overfill plug visible in the pic you posted.
Aisin overflow plug/tube is integrated into the pan.

The dipstick tube consists of 2 parts upper and lower. Once you detach the union the lower section comes out with the pan from below.
