[TR] authentic generator heat sheild on this TR4A?

[Chris Buckley]

Hi Carl,
  Not sure there ever was an authentic heat sheild made. I made 1 myself using the 2 bosses and the top front manifold bolt which so far has worked well (the generator has been working for 5000miles). I'll send a photo if you want.
  Cheers,
Chris

seen any until last weekend at the San Juan Batista British 2-seater Meet.
But I'm not sure it's authentic.
I have always wondered why the two threaded bosses cast into the 4into2
exhaust manifold were empty. This is the first time I've seen a sheild attached
.
Can anyone confirm that this heat sheild is an authentic factory made sheild?
(will send you a pic if you think you can help, or are curious)
Regards,
Carl
