I’m based in Brisbane, Australia, but can post to a U.K. address as my family are still based there and can forward the item on.
Many thanks in advance!

I think I may have a spare set. Let me have a look in the next week or so. I’m in the US. Shipping may be cost prohibitive.

Thanks for taking a look for me, it’s much appreciated!
I don’t believe so, not to my knowledge. There were many variations of this side cover breather for the A-series, but I think this one was unique to the 997cc Cooper.

Hi Glen,
Unfortunately I’m without a car at the moment, but thank you for your extremely kind offer!
I have a couple of potential leads I’m awaiting responses from and will absolutely send you a PM if I’ve no luck finding a complete set and you are willing to post to New Farm, 4005?
Many thanks mate, appreciate the support

Re: WANTED: 997 Tappet Covers
Hello,
I found my spare set and they are the other style for the 997. I believe this style was also used on the 1071. So it must have been changed over later in production for the 997. Sorry I can’t help on this one.
