Where is this part from?

Anyone got a picture of where that screw is?

All my stuff is way to old to have them but I do like to keep up to date on changes just for grins.

I really do not understand the reason for this change unless there is some advantage to the cam shaft being held in the castings until the lower tie rod is drilled and pinned. i.e. It is likely an assembly improvement at the 'factory'.

I can imagine a pile of yet to be drilled parts stacked in a jumbled pile and the castings and cam shafts parting company requiring them to be 'reassembled'.

If that be true, there is no requirement for that screw after the tie rods are drilled and pinned. Makes a nice oiling hole though!:D
