I just bought the beginning of a short term restoration project. The guy I bought it from said it was from a Cooper S and would be the good starting point for a quick rebuild, I am not sure. I think I might have done my dosh 
He said with a couple of weekends I could be finshed, but I cant find anything say that it is genuine. Photo below.

I think you should be right - that 5 on the head isn't acutally a 5 it's an 'S' 
good luck with the rebuild or is it more of a build up??

looks to be in too good of a condition to be 40 odd years old. I think you've been sold a replica

All I see is a bolt. Looks to be a metric thread too.

I'm in the same boat, I started a Cooper project with these I obtained last week.
NOS from the late 60s I believe. Your screw is interesting, want to sell it?
