Inlet camshaft
Inlet camshaft for Triumph engines, cataloged 1964-1965, also listed under the older E3838 number.
70-3838 is an inlet camshaft, listed in our records under the older E3838 form as well. It shows up in the crankshaft and connecting rods section of the parts books, which is where camshaft entries tend to land even though the part itself lives up top in the timing chest, working the inlet valve timing as the engine turns over.

The catalog entries we have for this one run from 1964 to 1965. A grounding note ties this same listing to a 5T camshaft entry elsewhere, which lines up with an inlet cam for that engine family, but we don't have enough in our own records to state a specific model or engine size fitment beyond that. If you're matching this against an engine you're rebuilding, best to check the profile and journal fit against what's actually in the case before you order.
If your parts book lists this under E3838, that's the same physical component - just the earlier numbering style before Triumph's later part-numbering scheme took over.
