Would anyone know if the wipac alternator used on the lightweights are single or 3 phase?

Hello everyone, I'm on the final stages of the restoration of my 1949 ES2 tank and I'm looking for pictures of the top of an original one because I'm not sure about the shape of the pinstriping.

Just like everything else in my project, my gearbox comes from several machines and is the pick of the best parts. Most everything seems there but for a few cork "seals" and a shim or two.

Thanks

I'm having my wheels rebuilt and the man doing it has asked if there is any rim/hub offset on the Norton.

A number of other makes for which he does this work do have offsets.

Thanks
