GEAR,DRIVE FEED
Oil pump drive feed gear for Triumph/BSA triples (T150, T160, A75), also listed as E6455.
70-6455 is the drive feed gear for the oil pump on Triumph and BSA triples. It's a small toothed gear that rides on the oil pump drive and keeps the pump turning in time with the engine so oil actually gets fed through the system. The catalog also lists this part under the number E6455, which is the same physical gear under an older number.

This one comes up in the parts books for the triple-cylinder machines - T150, T160, and the BSA A75 - so if you're working on one of those triples and the oil pump drive is worn or the gear teeth are chewed up, this is the part to look at. Bring your parts book number or engine number down to the counter and we'll make sure it's the right one before you order.
It's a cheap enough part to keep around if you're already in there doing oil pump work, since you don't want to pull the timing cover twice.
