Question Timing cover needed

I need a timing cover for a 350. Mine is is warped and I'm having a hell of a time getting it back on. OPG has them, but they want $70. Or if you know another place that sells them.

There's one on ebay right now for $45 shipped if you want to use paypal.

Or I could yank one from a junk 307 here for you. It will be filthy, but cheaper.

I have two. One has a striped out waterpump bolt hole and the other needs sandblasted. If you end up not finding one, let me know if you want either.

I got the new one when I did the rebuild. I did not want any rust right a way in a new clean water system, heads and block. You will have to tap the 4 WP holes. New front seal, and that is a purity major seal on the bottom. I just did not want to take any chances with used. Just trying to help - for a change.

Hamm- Did you purchase the OPG part or get it somewhere else?
J-CHi- Can you tell me the item number of the one you saw listed on eBay?

Re: Timing Cover

Is this what you need? This timing cover is from a '71 Olds Cutlass 350 engine. I removed it several years ago. Let me know; thanks-
