1936 Model 50 small bore oil pipes from rocker box to valve guides

Forums

Happy new Year all. On my Model 50 the small oil pipes coming out of the rocker box are plastic and have melted! Any suggestions where I can get proper parts or make something more robust and durable?

You can find small bore annealed copper tubing from various places.  Engineering model suppliers stock different sizes (3mm etc upwards).  It bends easily without collapsing and can easily be annealed again if it work hardens before you have the right shape.
