Hi people
I am installing a new engine that I have restored in my E30. The engine is a 2.0 M20B20 late model. Before installing the gearbox on the engine i realised that there where no pilot bearing installed on the new engine. So I managed to buy one for the late model where the grease is shielded,

but when I look at the original BMW diagram it looks like there is some dust shields also.

Do I need anything other that this pilot bearing?
