Any clues on where i can buy or have made up an oil pressure feed line 
connecting the engine to the pressure gauge which will look reasonably 
authentic?
The one currently on the Rover 10 is "frighteningly original" and is 
progressively leaking more and more; causing the size of the puddle to 
increase in direct proportion to the miles covered.

This is the last step before registration test for the Rover 10 - found an 85 
year old lucas magician here in melbourne who is rebuilding my RF35 regulatoor 
and fitted a replacement RF95/2 from his stock "so i could get around". 
He has a workshop full of parts and Lucasabilia.
Will pass on his details off list to all interested.  He is a backyarder now 
but did his apprenticeship in 1935 and "cut his teeth" on these units.
Thanks hugely to tasmanian lister Barry Riseley who knew of him through other 
contacts and put me in his direction.
To steal one of KK's:
