Drop Matt h a PM (Don't tell him I said it but he's A wizard on the Older? Landy's)..(Ex REME Helecopter pilot) and he's often down that way.

I hope he won't mind me saying ..He's nearly finished a completely HAND BUILT 1/4 scale series 2 replica completely from ground up!!
Really is something else!
You may have seen one he made years ago....when Prince Harry drove it into the Stadium to open the Invictus Games down under

Long story, I broke a bolt holding the accustic engine cover on, bolt drilled out but I got distracted and drilled too deep hence have a small hole in the crankcase carrier which just hit an oil run. Need to get crankcase carrior off properely then get a suitable garage to do some aluminium welding plus re drill and thread, then put back together. ouch !

Do you mean the upper thin section of the head that bolts down onto the main head and holds the injector rocker / roller shaft? Is it a 10p or 15p engine ( pre or post 2002 ), I’ve possibly got the part here
