A dry sump version is not usually worth more than a standard version. So I would estimate the value of yours as between £100 & £150 as it is original factory has not been run.

AFAIK,

It looks just like a regulare cam, but it got one additional "gear" like the one driving the dizzy - this is located on the other end of the cam... where the mech. fuel-pump was located.

Oh... sorry - seems like i missunderstood you... I thought you asked about the cam drive for the dry-sump pump.

Dry sump pump is clearly visible in the last photo.... other show how the oil was routed with pipes to the "front" of the block..
