The reason why the shields on the nearside differ between the RN and RP models is that the shape of the manifolds and exhaust front pipe are also different due to the different carburetters used.

Here we go. The plates off a RP.

The nearside (exhaust side). This goes over the exhaust.



The offside.



On the RN body I had (and my RL) both plates are like the bottom (offside) one but handed. The nearside one goes under the exhaust.

They are the ones I've got on my RP. Apologies if I got the terminology wrong in my original post. Je suis con.
