my front plate is all bent and pitted on the engine ive nearly finished building, the engine did leak from there, and id like to keep leaks to a minimum, and fit a new plate, ive seen an alluminium one on an mg midget at work, and it had studs to hold the timing cover on, rather than the silly short bolts, so anyone know where i can get one from? thanks
this is the guy that manufactures them,

MED are also selling them now.

thats it, im guessing its as thick as a standard steel one, so ill have plenty of room to countersink the two screws behind the crank sprocket? thanks.
It must be close or cam end float would be out, as well as the crank oil seal
I had the MED one and it comes already countersunk Being alloy though it does get damaged much easier but much lighter than the steel one.
