Default Late escos cam cover

Rebuilding my engine in my rwd saff and it just so happens to be a late escos lump, the rocker cover i have is old type and only half a dozen or so cam cover bolts line up so its gona leak!!!

Can the correct small turbo cam cover be modified to accept a rocker breather pipe?

Also where the hell can i get one from.

i've heard of people who have modified a small turbo cover on to a big turbo head, it needed welding & re-drilling, therefore i should imagine you could do it the other way round!
if it wasme i'd get a secondhand small turbo cover, no mesing about & all genrally prefer the look of them.
give Paul at 'north yorks rs breakers' a call, he'll probably have one.
(rember the gasket is also different)
