Simon,
In regard to the color of the engine mounts, the engines were painted after=
they were assembled, which meant that any rubber parts attached would have=
been painted also.

Subject: [Healeys] Engine mountings' colour.
With reference to my question on removing/replacing engine mountings (16/11=
/2016)=85..
What colour should they be?
I have an idea that they were engine colour, including the rubber. Seems st=
range to paint the rubber=85.can=92t imagine the paint would last??
Yes, it=92s been a while since I discovered that the exhaust side was delam=
inating and asked the question. The sum of the answers was not to panic (as=
if!), keep an eye on them and do the job when a suitable opportunity arise=
s.
I=92ve taken out the carbs and 6 branch exhaust in order to facilitate rais=
ing the engine for the installation of a harmonic balancer. Since one has t=
o detach half the mountings=92 bolts, I might as well replace them now.
That nut on the crankshaft=85I still have that massive, heavy, ugly, old sp=
anner that I bought second hand for less than a pound. (Saw it, hoped it wo=
uld fit, bought it and it did fit). One serious whack on that with a club h=
ammer and the nut=92s loose. Miracles do happen.
Club hammer=85do you call them that? We sometimes call them =93lump=94 hamm=
ers. Shortish handle with a big heavy head. Masons use them with those =93b=
olsters=94 I was on about recently. (A lot of the bolsters have a significa=
nt rubber hand guard. If you miss with a club hammer, it hurts.)
Enough,
Simon
