I'm finally putting my engine back together and can't remember if the Type 3's use the same bottom cooling tin like the type 1 (bottom row in picture below). I can convince myself either way, but would rather do it right. None of the manuals show the tin for the bottom, only the top; but the top tin has hole where it looks like bottom tin should mount.
Any input?

Just like a type-1, except it has an extra “rib” as the pancake is wider than upright.
Yeah some may call it overkill, but you can't have too much overkill.

Did you remember to install the cooling tin that is between & below the cylinders?

I found the diagram and the tin I had misplaced late Friday night. Thanks for the responses.

I never removed that tin. I was just changing my push rod tube seals. Thanks for the reminder though.
