Looks to suit earlier engines, such as my 1934 1805cc model. I think later engines with the 2003cc have a different cap arrangement.
I'm not sure if they are a universal fit.

Quite right Peter very different from my 1937 larger engine 15 sports.

Might fit but would look wrong. Syd

I have a number of parts catalogues for all versions of the 15. The rocker cover shown looks to be part of component list no. 22325 for chassis numbers 33700 - 34354. This would make it suitable for the 1805 cc engines built in 1933.
Best wishes, Dave B

Hello Dave,

you're really right. This rocker cover is just for the 1.805 cc engines, which has been built from September 1932 until July 1934. The rocker cover for the 2.003 cc engine has a rotating oil filler cap made of bakelite instead a flap made of aluminium. But as the block for the 2.003 cc engine is the same as for the 1.805 cc engine, this rocker cover could be used for the 2.003 cc engine too, but without the correct look.

There is a later one on ebay but is ridiculously expensive at £200. The early one is about 6-8 miles from me but unfortunately I don't know who the buyer is.
