Check for the washer between the spring and the oil filter. Often stuck to the oil filter and often accidentally binned. I have 3 engines here and none of them had the washer.

BTW mine are 400s, I imagine yours has a similar washer.
Yes, the 500 has them
Fit between filter and spring

Thanks Ash👍. I have some 1mm aluminium perforated sheet on order from eBay just in case I have to make something. I know it should be steel but I think the top plate will be difficult to fabricate with all the bends involved and Ali is a bit more pliable. Hopefully you may have something in your stash. The build is coming along nicely now with all the sub assemblies finished.

I deffo have the one with bends I reckon and has been re-plated  :)

Good for you,

The idea of the small head, is to stop it being tightened to much,

I also grease the O ring under the head to prevent it sticking/corroding
