Oil pan breather bracket

[Leo B]

Hi, I noticed that my R2 dont have Oil Pan Breather Bracket. I mean the bracket which is between breather tube and manifold. I dont even see marks that it has been on tube. The bracket is not a separate part in parts catalogue. I don't think it's safe to have the attachment just at the bottom. Will probably have to do one.

I assume you mean this bracket.  I have to run to a Dr appt right now, but can take measurements later today if you want.

Yes. Looks like simple separate part. 👍 Easy to do. I can measure myself because engine is on rack and have not installed Oil Pan and Breather yet. Thanks! Great help Dwight 😊

I noticed a picture in Workshop Manual where the tube is without bracket. Maybe early version like I have. Also different than yours. I noticed also that without braket the tube will shake against manifold. Not good. Bracket is a must.

I just looked at my '64 R1 Hawk and it has the same exact bracket as in my picture above.
