Has anyone had to replace the oilfeed to the camshaft?
Mine is leaking, it does not seem to be a standard item offered by the main parts suppliers. Any suggestions where I can get one made up?

Indeed it is tom, i had to make one, as i snapped my one

, i used some 3/16 copper brake pipe and olives. However remember to keep the two existing ends which screw onto the threads.
