here is something new and completely different for our forum lately . I have an air cooled technical issue I need help with.

something fell off my car and I am not sure what exactly .

Not sure if its a washer and bolt, some kind of spacer ? , if someone has an idea could they please post ? or if you are near your car could you snap a pic ? it hold down the oil line in front of rear wheel under the body. I noticed it while doing my SSI upgrade.

Thanks

Is the thing on the left the removable rocker panel? I think there's a plastic spacer that goes between the panel and the oil line clamp.

The bolt is a self-tapping one.

yeah thanks Dave , boys At pelican were able to help me out . you are right on , even though its holding on the oil line its actually part of the rocker panel hardware. It is a 11.5 mil spacer NLA so looks like I will be making out of delrin, not a big deal. I ordered the bolt and washer ...
the annoying thing .... last year when I did my rebuild I saw it hanging off, so screwed it back in finger tight with my fingers so I would not lose the spacer.... guess what , I forgot , it is now gone lol.

Hah, that just means it's time to take the rockers off and go hot rodder!
