    did you get the couple that are slightly hidden in the crevices?

    also, the gaskets like to stick after they have been there for a long time. sometimes it takes a little effort to break it loose but nothing that would take any more than a little arm strength.

    Here ya go... This also shows the torque sequence for reinstall. My guess is you have not removed the bolts from position 5 and 7.

    Easy way to know if you have them all is.... there's 12 bolts that hold an LIM to the engine.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
