Larry,
If you mean the pressure bypass pipe, it's a bent piece of about
3/8" pipe, vaguely S shaped, with a perpendicular fitting at the
back end (a banjo fitting) with a large hollow bolt that attaches
it to the block. At teh front end it's a parallel fitting, like a
pipe fitting, that screws into the top of the oil filter mount (adaptor?).
You NEED the Bentley 1275cc Sprite/Midget manual I just happen
to have for sale on EBAY at:
