UFO (Unidentified Flathead Object)

I have a seal plate but my 8BA gasket set did not come with the two seals that this UFO is suppose to have. Both ends of my oil pan has rope seals. I cant find any images showing the correct positions of this plate. What does it bolt onto and is it necessary or did someone add it as a afterthought. I had a seal made for the crank area based on the old sample. Does anyone have images?
