Can anyone post a photo of the oil line arrangement on a Pre A 2 piece
crankcase. Include both inlet and exit line with the fittings. Trying
to put together parts for one.

Thanks
Frank

Hi Frank,

Yeah, those lines are expensive and not correct - wrong crimp on the end, wrong braiding, and not the steel ends are too short.

The lines Porsche used during the pre-A period were braided steel lines with no tracers woven in. Probably Cohline. Here's a photo of a mid-to-late 1953 Type 528 engine with factory-installed oil filter canister (Mann I believe).

Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.


Notice how long the tubes on the ends are (including the banjo fitting down at the oil pressure switch.

I have more photos if you need. Shoot me a PM.
