Please don't bother. I am surprised that I can't find a picture of the proper setup in the Bentley. Yes, the top looks like the photo you found, but there does not appear to be any photo that shows the bottom. What you have nicely described is indeed the -67 draft tube. This makes it seem likely that your engine has been replaced with an earlier one. What's your engine #? Your 70 would need the rear mount; does your case have the mounting points for the rear mount cross bar cast into the magnesium case? Or does it have some kind of steel adapter there instead? To answer your original question, an occasional drop of oil out of a draft tube is pretty normal. There is often a fair amount of water in those drops, too. I think I have the parts which you might want to add back to your 70. The draft tube was dropped in 68 in order to improve emissions. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
