Yes, a different part.
Apparently, in the 9000 version of the 4 cyl there was a distributer cap located on the "front" side top of the drivers side end of the engine (technically the rear of the engine). In my 99, the hole where the distributer was located has a metal and rubber plug in it that tends to leak oil with age. I think in later models, a cam driven vacuum pump or some such device was located there.
If you have one of the later models you won't have a hole to keep plugged up.
