hello everyone
im new to this site and fairly new to working on my T25 2.0 Aircooled engine.
i am currently trying to patch up an oil leak under my van by changing the pushrod tubes/seals/rocker cover/gasket. but while i was down there i realised that the tinware underneath the pushrod tubes is pretty nackered looking.
does anyone know anywhere that you can still buy tinware from, or does anyone have any patterns so i can make it myself?
i think i need parts 12 13 15 and 16 in this image

cheers.

Hi.

Try putting an add in the wanted section on here. Someone may have some knocking around. :ok

Is often just simpler to make new ones from a piece of aluminium sheet and tin snips.
