i had to pull the oil tank out of my 914 to address a leak, and one of the mounting studs on the tank broke when i went to remove the nut. it broke about a 1/4" off of the tank.

quick google search last night didn't yield any good intel, what am i looking at to replace that stud?...

Personally, I would email @mb911 and explain what happened and send him a picture and see if he could repair it if you shipped it to him. I would want it repaired correctly with a new stud. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
