                As I side note: The MKI & MKII Tigers used AC Delco PCV valves, not Ford/Motorcraft.

That seems very strange.   The Parts Lists only indicates a Ford Part number.

It would be interesting if anyone can confirm an AC Delco part with a photo.

 

I agree the brass adaptor was probably made by Weatherhead.

There is a repeated symbol on this part – photo by Ken Firch – it should be the suppliers Logo.

 

I have a 1990 Weathehead catalog and they do show that symbol – W with an arrow through it.

I was buying and selling Tiger parts in 1978 and this brass angle fitting was obsolete from Ford then. 

I believe the brass angle fitting was made by Weatherhead.

 

I am 90% sure that all the 260 MKI Tigers had the angle fitting PCV adapter, and it was changed with the 289 MKII Tiger.

 

As I side note: The MKI & MKII Tigers used AC Delco PCV valves, not Ford/Motorcraft.
