[Healeys] Concours Question 6 cylinder Oil filler cap

[josef-eckert at t-online.de]

That leaves the question open: When was the change from the early version 
to the rimmed cap?
My 62 BT7 already had the rimmed version. I know earlier 100/6s had the 
other cap.

Many thanks to all who took the time to respond to my oil cap question. 
It seems that the original type, with only 1 exception, is the "rimmed" 
cap.
We will be updating the Concours Guidelines appropriately.

  I have been asked a question by a gentleman restoring a late BJ8 about
  oil filler caps.
  The cap on his car is of this type and he is fairly sure that it is
  original.

  However I am fairly sure that the only original caps that I have seen on
  6 cylinder engines look like this.

  with the distinct "rim" around the edge.
   
  Would appreciate anyone with a known original late BJ8 letting me know
  which type of cap is fitted to their car.
   
  Many thanks
