I know my cover should have a tall filler cap for starters. What else?

I've seen one for sale but it has the Aussie MOWOG logo, so that wouldn't be right would it?

My 68 has an Aussie Mowog one.

The Cooper S rocker cover doesn't have anything on it , as the engines were still being sourced from England . The one with the map of aus and mowog came with the Clubman GT . Apparently they were swapped for the Clubman GT sometime after they arrived here , something to do with Aussie content .......

I really think they changed part way through the Mk1 S.

Isn't the Morris 1100S cover the same (Mowog Oz) sealed one?
If so I agree with M1100.

Yes ......the 1100 motors changed over to the mowog cover earlier , as they were being built here , whereas Cooper S motors were still imported from England , and the change didn't occur until later ( Clubman GT)

The 1100 Motor was built Here, But if my memory serves me correctly The 1100S was still imported

I think the 1100S was locally made from about mid 68.
