Se ha mencionado varias veces el tema pero no me queda claro si es una pieza (la tapa, supongo) de sustitución y no es más que cambiarla por la original.
A ver si podemos ir poniendo información y las opciones que hay para el S.

The spoon and Mugen oil pans are OEM oil pans that is fitted with baffles to prevent oil pressure drop due to oil shifting caused by centrifugal forces.

As for welding them in, the stock oil pan is cast aluminum, and not to mention coated with oil. So welding it can be a challenge for the
Diy people. Most shops that have a tig welder should be able to install it though, just make sure your oil pan is cleaned very well before wedling it in.
Any welding shop will be able to TIG weld this baffle into place. Clean it best you can and the shop will know aluminum must be absolutely spotless to weld and they'll know how to prep it.
For you DIY welders you'll need at least a 160 amp (240 volt) TIG welder with a thicker than usual torch tip. You'll have to create a puddle in the oil pan before putting any heat into the thin baffle. Normal old Windex works great as a final prep for aluminum welding. I'm a welder but I let a professional weld my baffle.

The Spoon baffled oil pan is a stock Honda oil pan that has been modified with the addition of baffles to prevent oil starvation and loss of oil pressure in high G-force corners. It is highly recommended for race engines and enthusiasts who frequently track their car and care about engine longevity.

Like many aftermarket performance oil pans, the Spoon baffle oil pan features a baffle to keep oil present where the pick-up always has a supply of oil. This is advantageous on road courses where long drawn out turns can keep the oil at one part of the pan, thus inhibiting oil pickup.

The S2K pump has a different bolt pattern and lacks a provision for the tensioner.
Honda redesigned the oil pump for their 9K S2K motors rather than just using the pump they already had for a reason. We took all 3 pumps to the largest manufacturer of Gerotor gears ( make the gears for Porsche to Catapillar) and went over all the issues. There is a huge amount of info. on causes of cavitation, aeration, etc. , but the S2K pump is built about as good as can be and still work in the application. This has been went over in several previous threads.
The difference in the 2 can be seen on an oil pump dyno. The RSX begins falling of between 8500-9000 (with gallons of oil to feed it, so a baffle doesn't cause it not to fall off). A baffle is good for road racing, but helps with a different issue.
Quite simply Honda designed a pump to do >9K and one for <9K. Use the pump for your application. That's why we've offered both.
There has been some slight variations of the RSX pumps, but it doesn't seam to have a pattern of one being used on a particular model or have a definetive marking on them.
The changes I've seen only involve the shape of the step porting that will only work to remove "pulses" in the pressure. This won't have a large affect on the pumps performance and isn't worth hunting for a particular one.
Muchas gracias.
