I am having trouble locating replacements for a few of our oil system components. Missing when I got the car. 1970 914-6. Highlighted in yellow and descriptions below. Mostly hardware, and a couple rubber pieces http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&showtopic=307932&view=findpost&p=3087939.
Does anyone have a source new or used? I have searched the usual suspects with regards to Porsche and 914-centric parts vendors. A couple I even ordered from, but then they were unable to deliver.
In lieu of a supplier, perhaps someone has access to these parts that could offer dimensions for the support and tube clamps?
Clamps and grommets are available a some local auto parts stores. SAE sizes will be really close. Check Amazon too.
the adel type clamps are universally available

the new ones are usually some type of alloy metal and lighter but work just fine.
Have you checked Stoddard also check with George at AA

The 'blow-up' illustration confuses locations a bit. And the shape of some hoses/tubes.
I can post pics of most of the parts tomorrow.
I think it will be helpful.
# 78 rubber washer between inner fender and tank
# 18-2 grommit, hose through shelf
# 18-3 Norma hose clamp 18mm supports tube below front engine tin
# 18-4 small 90 degree bracket attached to front engine tin to support oil tube
# 18-7 not sure but may be Norma 18mm clamp to support tube below chain housing
# 19-2 grommit on hook on body
# 19-3 30mm Norma clamp that attaches to heat exchanger to protect hose from hot
exhaust

I looked all over for correct sized Norma clamps from a variety of suppliers (Porsche vendors, auto parts stores, clamp distributors, etc.). Never did find anyone that would supply the correct size Norma clamp to US unless you want to pay $20 USD shipping for something off eBay. Tried Wurth too.
Did find some off-brand correct sizes on Amazon. Ended up going with these from McMaster, as I feel like they'll be good quality.
Yes, there are several of us working on a /6 conversion currently. Thanks for posting.
I purchased a Patrick AN oil line kit, hoping they will furnish a couple photos of the kit installed.
did you try stoddards for your pts slammin
