John M, the magnesium alloy cased motors were very late, possibly as late as 1959, a desperate move to keep the bikes competitive. The early units like yours were aluminium alloy I'm sure. I'll have a look at my copy but have you seen the photos in Don Morley's book? There is something else too, would you email me at Trials59(AT)yahoo(DOT)co(DOT)uk and I'll discuss it further.

REgards, Mark
