Section 5200. PL.13 Engine Oil Fittings.

Further to our memo. Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/HH.3/JH.11.3.40.

We send you herewith marked up print of the above scheme together with experimental L.O.P.

We have found it necessary to make an addition of a pipe from the rocker feed to the wheel case for timing gear lubrication.

This has not been shown on the scheme but is consistent with previous practice and Jnr.{Charles L. Jenner} agrees.
