Oil filter housing gasket clarification

Got an e92 a few weeks ago and had a PPI done. On the inspection paper, it states "oil filter housing gasket inner & outer". Can someone clarify what "inner & outer" is referring to? thanks

I imagine they were referring to the actual oil filter housing gasket and the Mickey Mouse connector. It is easy to DIY both while you’re there and avoid the plastic version like the plaque. My OFHG is still good after 129K but I have both parts and plan to do them soon.

Would you happen to know the part name/number for the mickey mouse connector? I'll replace the entire hose if I can't get the connector separately. Would this be the right part https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...in-11537541992

You can buy the aluminum flange by itself, most of the online sellers offer them.
