When i changed the oil and filter at weekend i noticed the little dowel on the oil filter housing where the O ring goes round was missing(i did check the old oil incase i dropped and missed it!) Is this common can you buy just a new dowel? will it cause a problem the new O ring sits in a recess anyway, is the dowel just to make lining up easier???

It would be handy if anyone does have one lying around as i popped into local bike shop who sells Yamaha's and he didn't seem to have a clue what i was after but said he could probably order it with the part number(didn't have the number with me at the time!)

Sorry, I haven't got one, it was one of the smaller ones that locate the clutch cover where the bolts go through.

Hope I didn't get your hopes up to much.
