Default Parts missing from under the right fender of the MKII

I seem to be missing some parts from my 1962 MKII. I believe there is supposed to be a cover that protects and supports the brake servo and a vacuum reservoir or accumulator tank under there as well.

Please see the following video to see what I am talking about.


If anyone has either of these parts, please let me know.

Here is a picture of what this area is supposed to look like:

BTW, I got this photo from here:

It seemed to be one of the only photos I could find online of this area of the car.

The cover does more then just protect the servo, it holds it in place, more so then just the small mounting bracket that's there now.

And the protection is important because it's a real muck and bullets region. The whole space would benefit from the wheel arch liner arrangement that most modern cars have.

UPDATE:
I have two, one from MK-2, one from S type.

Also have two types of Vacuum Tanks, one MK-2, one S type.

also have 2 Brake Servos, both untested, good for parts that are no longer available, or Cores for exchange.

Going to post pictures in Marketplace later.

Lin's site: Brakes. A wonderful reference on a total Mk2 restoration. Go to Blog for all the dropdown menus.

UPDATE:
I have two, one from MK-2, one from S type. Unrusted but dirty, covered in factory anti rust coating.

Also have two types of Vacuum Tanks, one MK-2, one S type.

also have 2 Brake Servos, both untested, good for parts that are no longer available, or Cores for exchange.

Going to post pictures in Marketplace later.

I tried posting in Marketplace 9 pictures. What a hassle, I spent two hours editing images and trying to post them.

Default Vacuum tank types

There are two types of Vacuum tanks, one must be MK-2, the other S type.

the difference is in the mountings and bracketry or the lack of.

Pictures below:

Type 1 (pictures 1 and 2)
Type 2 (pictures 3 and 4)

These are covered in what looks to be factory anti-rust coating, there is no rust, only surface oxidation over the coating. Type 2 seems to match the above pictures posted by member 5piman:

ok, got it, then Type 1 is for MK-2. Otherwise they seem to be the same tank.
