Ignition Spring

Hi,
I am looking for the spring which goes behind the points on a Wipac ignition. As seen here: http://www.classicseagulls.co.uk/images ... 0x333_.jpg

Anyone know where I could source one from?
Thanks

Gearbox oil seal

Hi we have a Clutched Silver Century, and the seal around the propshaft just behind the prop itself is shot. I have checked my normal sources for parts and am struggling to find one? Anyone point me towards a supplier?
