[Spridgets] Name that part (real LBC content).

[Weslake1330]

Ok, maybe it was that badly made?  I do think the camera distorted one side
from the other.  It is blanking plate to fit on the end of the Inlet
manifold on my Sprite when I have removed the Weber 45 DCOE.  I have a
thick gasket stuck on the other side.  I think it's a neater solution than
rag stuffed down it or a taping up job.

Regards


Daniel
