I don't think so.....
I think the original ones has "rounder" ends?
Anyone?

I found one that looks similar on page 65 of Original Mini Cooper and Cooper S.
I'm selling them so if they are correct, it would be nice to add it to the description.
Thanks.

Ah yes.
I was thinking of the one on page 36.
You'll have to ask someone more knowledgable than I whether (what looks like) the Mocal 13 rower was standard issue on Mk2s. I suspect they were but I doubt they'll fetch the same money as the Mk1 ones which go for well over 200 quid when they come up for sale now and then.

The first one might be.
The real ones have one of the fittings mounted at an an angle at the factory.

They both look like ARO 9809s - the second one has some adaptors screwed on - this was the standard oil cooler from January 1966 on UK built cars.
It is quite hard to find original ones these days without the 'wings' on the top.
