What have you done today with your Austin Seven
Dave, thanks for your comment. The source of leakage is all too visible! The valve cover challenge has been discussed on the forum many a time, getting a flat tin  cover and not distorting it by over tightening  in a desparate attempt to make oil tight are two important issues. I found a cast ali cover at a jumble, and with the silicon gasket made from high spec baking silicon sheet solved that problem. Now, silicon gaskets between crank case and block have been a source of debate.
