Hi guys the curved bit on the minis that cover the rear subframe grease nipple.. I always thought that they were screwed .... But I have found a BMC workshop manual showing bolts...... Does anyone know what it is??

I seem to recall there is a mistake there. So far as I know, the ones on the side of the car are phillips headed machine screws, the ones underneath are Phillips headed sheet metal screws (self tappers).

I agree, although I think the screws are sometimes replaced because the nuts rust out
