Thats a tough one, checked all mine, I dont have a spare, correct one looks to say "oil level" in 2 places 180* apart. level line is a little different from the later filters, side by side they are a little different. Lip is a little different, too.


I can post a picture if it would help you maybe find one.

I have at least one extra cup, however, what should or shouldn’t it have?

I took a look and the one I have readily available doesn’t have any markings. I’m currently going thorough a couple shipping containers worth of parts. If I find one I’ll let you know.

And if there is a handle inside the Cup, it is for the M-38A1 It fits perfect, tho.
