Thanks for updating the pictures. Isn't it nice to have a lovely clean engine. Trick is keeping them clean!
I've just been ordering brass compression fittings to connect my crankcase to an external oil filter. I was going to use barbs and rubber hoses but having recently seen a clean engine with nicely done copper pipe it gives a much cleaner, vintage look and is easier to keep clean than black rubber hose and hose clips. Just trying to find 8mm cupro-nickle pipe locally now.
