It has a carter hole (pore) repair with bronze.

Also I need a new plastic cowl tank.

So who's claiming that a Mills 75 dates from 1940?

Otherwise a genuine Mills will have a cast back plate with the two words "Mills" and "England" circumferentialy embossed on it.

The backplate metal should match that of the crankcase.

It should also have a serial number on the top side of each mounting lug.

Other identifying hints will become obvious if you read the thread above.

Good luck, Ray.
