1970's British engineering is astonishing. I once had an old Rover that had inboard rear disc brakes (above and in front of a DeDion rear axle)- after five hours of wrestling with it, I put it all back together exactly as I had found it with the original parts. Sounds completely correct for an early Jensen Healey. Not completely sure why they made that oil canister so complex, it is a bit funny to look at isn't it? I totally agree with you, they look fragile at best. I have never heard of one coming apart, however. I would certainly let sleeping dogs lie, as it were, and it makes for great conversation at car shows.
