Hi,
it seems I've lost one piece of engine tin and I'm wondering if anyone has one for sale, or knows where to potentially get it.
Will also post on "thesamba.com".
I'm missing the top cover for cylinder 1+2, see picture, inside yellow circle (sorry for stealing this pic, was from an earlier post here a couple years back when someone sold these).

Thanks for all hints.
Best,

that will be very very difficult to find to the point that If I was in the position, I would purchase a piece of 914 2.0 sheetmetal and fabricate the difference in the stamping. We have a complete 912e engine here for sale but that would be overkill
