Oil cap

I was looking around to familiarize myself with the engine compartment, as I just bought this truck, and noticed the oil fill cap says, "For gasoline engines". Huh? So did someone swap it out for the wrong one in the past? Is there a difference? Anywhere besides the dealer that I can get the correct one (if need be)?

hmm.... That's interesting...
Did you buy from dealer or private party? I'd call whoever and ask...
