Cap

A cap for the oil pump and release valve assembly, part number 70-2790 (also E2790).

PN · 70-2790

This is the cap listed under part number 70-2790, also cataloged historically as E2790, and it shows up in the parts book under the oil pump, release valve, and manifold figure. That puts it down in the oil pump area of the engine's bottom end, on the release valve or manifold assembly rather than anywhere in the top end or gearbox.

The catalog entries we have for this cap run from 1960 to 1962, and it's shown up twice across our records. Beyond that the description is just "cap" with no dimensions, thread, or material noted, so we can't tell you more about size or fit from what's on file.

If you're chasing this part down for a rebuild, bring in the old one or give us a call so we can confirm it matches what you're working on before you order.
