Hi Steve
Early valve covers are also a different shape. They don’t have the rebate for the rubber gasket strip. Instead a flat cork gasket was used.
Your later cover would provide a better seal (using rubber) and I’ve used a later cover adapted by extending the holes on my special. Others may throw their hands up in horror at this modification or point out the downside of doing this.
Cheers
