It probably has a "proper" name but that must be close. It'sthe plastic plate which I expect forms part of the cooling for the alternator Another one of those hard to get bits I bet Mine looks like this
Found your thread selling them @pkrboo: http://thelatebay.com/index.php?threads/type-4-alternator-seal.1679/
Only other place I've found GermanSupply in Canada: http://www.germansupply.com/home/customer/product.php?productid=17617&cat=&page=4
http://www.vw-classicparts.de/bestand/index_e.html This is where i got them from amd i believe they are now out of stock ( i bought the last ones), could be worth emailing them though part number is 022 903 203
Thanks PeaSoup good spot!! I've spoken to them and a reasonable price but £22 postage I could risk non- tracked at bit cheaper but I might as well throw my money away in my view. There is some good news, they can include (in the same package) a cooling elbow for £9 and as these are £26 + Post from JK there seems to be an opportunity here . As in, I need one and might buy two
Sorry PeaSoup, forgot you were looking for one of these. The German supply place only have one used one left! The VW classic parts Web site say sold out.
No problem - mine is usable but not brilliant - just thought if I could get one I'd swap it when I do my engine later in the year.
I'm after an earlier one, have emailed Gods Good to see if he can locate some but still waiting to hear back. So if anybody does have some spare, please keep me in mind?
After months (years!?) of my Viking languishing in bits, now the 'surge' is on to finish it. This seal seems to still be unavailable, so I'm trying to get some made - has anyone got one they can draw a round to make a template? Thanks! Gerry
