Phone them as their website is turd! Just ask for a c20xe 8v sumpgasket and baffle plate Then ask for some 8v sump bolts as the original ones are too long! (will be a bit more expensive as i got mine for free)

Deffo 2.0 8v baffle/gasket Geoff. It's a bonded one so its less likely to leak. Mine's not leaked yet dude.

Got one on mine & from autovaux with the shorter 8v bolts but can't say if it leaks just as the engine isnt in.
My mate put a small blob of sealant in each corner on mine as that's where they tend to leak he says also used loctite on the sump bolts torqued up to 11lb as stated on the migweb site.

I found that, I tightened up my sump with a normal gasket. Then checked it a couple hours later and the bolts were all loose, because the gasket compresses, so you have to tighten all the bolts again. Maybe that's a cause of them leaking because people don't know to re tighten the bolts after a couple hours!
