I asked in 101, but have had no bites, and it is holding me up, so I figured I would ask the experts.
How many oil galley plugs does the ALH have? I can only see the one below the water pump and the one above the crank on the other end. I got three back with my honed block, but I don't know where the third one goes.

Thank you for your help.

It seems that there are two by the water pump.

Strange, I searched about ten different terms using the google search, and found some info, but one of the links which show up at the bottom of the page and didn't show in my search had the answer.

If this is the wrong answer, please correct me.
Thanks

These are the two I have found and installed the plugs:

Front plug just below the water pump bolt hole:


Rear plug at about 11 o'clock relative to the crankshaft:

There are 3 total. One on back, two on front. The second one on the front is covered by the front crank seal holder. All the same PN. Be warned, they're $7 each.

VW prices are very strange.
My local dealer:
Transmission engine mount and dog bone bolt set = $60
Great big crank pulley bolt = $5.50
Large idler bolt = $13.00

Say what ?!
Part # N01190710 I believe
$0.50 list price, $0.30 each from 1stVWParts.com
I bought 6 of them last month and fitted them.

I went off ETKA and 030103113 is the "correct" plug at ~$7 each. What's the height of the that NXXX plug? These 030 ones are really shallow.

VW logic strikes again.
ETKA shows 030103113 for ALH and BEW
and N01190710 for BHW.

The oil porting is identical, so no idea why the two different parts.
They are pretty shallow also.

Hate to revive a dead thread for forever, but I was wondering if someone can re-up those pictures?

Thanks ahead of time!

you really don't need the pictures to see the plugs, there's two up front by the chain cover and water pump, one in the bellhousing
can not miss them if you tried

the one in the bellhousing is drilled through to one of the front two.
