[Mgs] MGB exhaust manifold

[Barney Gaylord]

The casting number is commonly one digit 
different from the final part number.  I think 
they made the finished part drawing first, then 
made a copy of it to modify the drawing to show 
more material on the casting before 
machining.  When assigning drawing numbers, the 
finished part number was first followed by the 
casting number.  Some castings can be machined 
differently to make different finished parts (with different part numbers).
