any ideas !!!!!

does anyone know which engine and car this came from ??

I have one exactly the same on my 240. I like it because it has an 'O' ring type seal which does not leak and the cover can be removed many times withought having to buy gaskets. I took it off a car at Pic a Part.
From memory a Nissan Laurel.Not 100% sure on that though. I thought it was alloy, but turned out to be plastic.

thats my problem as i do not have the seal and i want to get one for the rocker cover and as a bonus it weighs half a kilo less than an alloy one

Hiya Moggy,, Am I right in thinking it's an O ring seal?? If so why not buy an o ring kit and make your own,, Ive used them lots on industrial equipment and they do work,,even the cheap shyte from halfords !
