has anyone got an idea of an alternative to the stock oil pressure gauge rubber hose the Deluxe and Coopers between the metal engine and gauge pipes?

I picked up a minispares hose once, only to find it was a bright red piece of plastic line... Not very much like the original at all...

Karcraft carries the right hose, not sure what colour it is but mine is 43 years old and I could use one too. PM `Karcraft' and ask.

There is a standard Gates replacement hose - but even with the product number Gates deny it exists..... but MiniMania in Ca sell it.

The Karcraft item would probably be the best bet.

Cheers, Ian
