Can anyone identify this manifold? I thought it might be a Speedwell small bore item.

The center pipe has the number 5420 3 100 and a hallmark of some sort prior to the number. It also has a separate downtube.

Definitely not Speedwell.
I have not seen one exactly like that before, looks to be of fair quality, but those pressed collector box sections were particularly popular in the 80's & 90's budget exhausts.

I finally found what I was looking for!
In the 1965 brochure for exausts and manifolds in the Speedwell archives of this site I found the image I was looking for. Close, but not it! The collector is different.
However, the "Speedwell the Lost Slideshow" article shows a closer representation.

That'll be this one then,
As you say, close, but no cigar.
