Norton Dowel
An engine bottom end dowel (NMT2105) used for aligning parts in the crankshaft/piston/timing gear area.
NMT2105 is a dowel that shows up in the engine bottom end catalog listings, in the section covering the crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons, camshaft, and timing gear. Dowels like this one are used to hold two machined parts in precise alignment with each other, usually where a bolted joint alone can't guarantee the parts stay lined up run after run.

Our records don't give us a lot of detail beyond that on this one — no dimensions or exact placement are listed. It appears twice in the catalog data covering 1971 to 1973, but we can't say from that alone which specific model or engine variant it was fitted to.
If you're chasing this part down for a rebuild, give us a call and we'll help confirm it's the right dowel for what you've got apart on the bench before you order.
We've never carried this one. Tell us what you're after and we'll go looking — you'll get a price and photos before you commit to anything.
