Engine re-build at Emporium.

New front Head and Barrel. Front stud had corroded badly and needed persuasion to come out. The head had a broken bolt and a new one sourced off the ebay. The Emporium had a used barrel for sale which was handy. There were over 60 items of renewable seals, gaskets, o rings and sundries.

Re-assembly starts shortly...
