Bruce,
I believe that the Tiger timing chain cover was different somewhere
between the Mk I and the Mk IA, in that the water pump was open at the
back impeller and was all aluminum.
I have heard that the later models were closed with a plate, and made of
cast iron. I am told, as well, that they are not directly
interchangeable, although some modifications may be possible.
In addition, I think that there is the issue of the oil dip stick
location. Later covers did not all have a similar entry hole for the
dipstick and tube.
