If anyone has those little winged shaped 'keepers', that go under the valve cover bolts, I'm looking for one (but I'll take as many as you have, to make it worth your while). They come in two configurations; 'straight' & 90°. They're hard to tell apart, but the 90° ones are a little more curved than the 'straight' ones.

I need a 90° keeper.

TIA.

Link? or anything, just in case someone in the future may want a set
Sorry, no, an inmate happened to have one spare corner keeper (which is what I needed) and mailed it to me.
