Same as on TC 0632 ... I figure after 70 odd years, an extra hole here and there is not a big deal.
Tweed. (with an extra hole!)

Suspect my mounting may be an afterthought by someone, the pipes do bend over the front of the plate, but the small hole holding the clip is in line with the carbs rather than by the timing cover and it does not use any of its fasteners.Steve TC2911

Steve is correct one of the bolt in by the bulge in the timing cover held the clip

Nick, TC 2911 has a hole drilled through the engine plate with a screw and nut securing the clip. I believe it was that way when I took possession of the car, but that has been some time ago and the engine has been out and apart a time or two during my ownership. Steve TC2911

Hi All,
I can see the routeing for the two carb overflow pipes to take them neatly under the carbs to the front of the car. The pictures that I have seen show that there is a clip attached to the flat plate holding the engine block to the chassis mount. On neither of my TCs is there a hole to fix the clip. Should there be? Was there one when the cars left the factory?. Is the solution just to drill a hole?
Feedback welcomed
