Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.

I didn't receive the picture. I attached two pictures. Tell me if the part you are referring to is shown in these pictures.

Take care,
Joe

Welcome back:

It's hard to tell by looking at that pic because of size. But, it looks like number 3 is pointing at the timing chain cover which isn't related to the oil cooler. I have attached two pictures. They are of the front of the engine. Tell me if you see the part in one of these pictures.

Take care,
Joe

Thank you for responding back. I don't see it in the pictures. It's located at the bottom of the oil cooling housing unit. It's a little piece that looks like it broke off. Here I have enlarged the picture to the direct piece I'm talking about. If you could look up oil cooling housing unit for a 2011 jeep grand Cherokee Laredo it would probably be much easier. Just flip it over and look at the bottom. I'm going to upload a picture of the unit also. It's at the bottom. Here it is, maybe this will be more helpful. Thank you in advance.

Those are the O-ring seals for the oil filter housing and cooling unit. Normally you replace the entire unit as they tend to fail at the O-rings and then the plastic cracks at the aluminum to plastic seam. There are newer versions that don't seem to fail as fast but they also use the newer filter so you need to make note of that if you use the newer part.
