No matter, I had a spare anyway and got the new one fitted in about 15 minutes. The oil is staying inside the motor again now - which is nice.

Always good to have the oil where it should be Alan! You're reminding me i need to do mine - valve clearances and rocker cover gaskets. Not quite so simple on mine though!
