BSA Oil tank with fixed fittings
A BSA A65 oil tank with fixed fittings, part number 68-8378.
This is an oil tank with fixed fittings, listed in the catalog under part number 68-8378. It shows up in the OIL TANK figure alongside toolbox and silencer entries, which tells you it sits in that cluster of parts mounted on the right-hand side of the frame under the seat, opposite the toolbox.

The catalog title on this one points to the A65, so this is a BSA oil tank, not a Triumph piece, despite where it lives in our filing. It's the fixed-fittings type, meaning the unions and connections are built into the tank body rather than being separate bolt-on pieces you'd fit afterward.
Our record on this one is brief - it appears in only two catalog entries across 1969 to 1970. If you're sourcing this for a rebuild, confirm the tank matches your frame mounts and oil line routing before you commit to it.
