Hi

Thats a factory sump guard for a type 1 case, I have them in book somewhere, they may have come on country buggies.

Nah - it's so you can turn your 9:1 CR engine upside-down and cook your dinner on it!

if you refer to your "Modifications for difficult journeys hand book" you will find the tech drawing for this part, the sump guard for type 1 engines,as well as a whole lot of other nifty bash guards mods and tips.
If you dont have it you can find it at http://members.tripod.com/~wetwesties/index1.html
there seems to be some problems with that site so I have put a copy of the image here http://www.users.bigpond.net.au/humanoid/38.gif
