I'm painfully tempted to make an alternative suggestion but have resisted the urge by the sheer force of willpower

"Which just goes to show that you should never throw anything away... Found this in a box of toot from my dad's man tin. No idea what it was!"
Worth £16.20p inc. VAT at Burlen's prices Nick !

Refer the earlier discussion on SU Carburettors .
The unvented cap wasn't introduced until post war and all earlier caps were fitted without a fibre washer.
The OM had no damper piston.

I'm equally painfully tempted to suggest that you must purchase extra small ones Charles if they are the size of a finger on a rubber glove?!
Thanks Jeff. Is it worth more if it is original and has patina?
