Thanks to everyone for their comments. I needed a new plug/cap for the engine oil dipstick tube that is located at the rear of the engine (behind the steering wheel). When I called my local MB main dealer (JCT600), the guy told me that this was for the transmission oil. He even sent me an illustration showing an engine oil dipstick on the same side of the engine near the front. When i told him my car didn't have this, he couldn't help me any further. I actually called in and bought the part i needed which is the engine oil dipstick cover. Its so easy for a so called expert to make you question whether you've got it wrong.
