I was surprised that at the bottom of one of the boxes was a 100 BN1 laygear or clustergear. It is in very good condition and is stamped with the part number 1B3474. The number is familiar, but can anyone verify it for me please?

Later Healeys utilized a washer between the pipe and the gauge (P/N 2K4936). Check if there is oil on the nut at the back of the gauge. If so, try tightening it; if the leak persists, you likely need to replace the washer.

I discovered a drop of oil on the fitting from the oil pipe to the gauge. Air in the pipe will cushion the pressure pulses from the pump, and if the air bleeds out it will cause the needle to vibrate. I disconnected the fitting for a few seconds and reconnected it, vibration eliminated. Cheers!

I would suggest that you make a small gasket out of leather with a hole in the middle just big enough so that the probe can get through. That will solve your problem.

Did someone tell that what would seem to be easy to fix would actually be easy? It's an Austin-Healey! Seriously, notice that the open end of the wrench head is not aligned with the handle. You need to tighten the nut as much as you can and then flip the wrench over and tighten it a little bit more. Keep flipping the wrench until you get it as tight enough to spot the leak. Also, find a wrench that is as short as possible. Been there, done that.
