Are the tappet covers for a 71 cb 350 the same as the tappet covers for a 74 cb 360? Adjusted valves tonight and discovered one of the covers was broken on my 360. Found some on ebay for a good price but it says early style for a 71 cb 350. Whats the difference?

360 v 350 they dont even look remotely the same :-[
350 does not even have a "tappet cover" with rockers like a 360
look at on some online microfish

Oh sorry, I'm talking about the inspection covers. Like these guys. For access to adjust tappet clearance on valves.
