Hi Gilles,

Could it be that the .801. relates to the Fw190's BMW 801 radial engine? A company named Eberspächer made exhaust systems for aircraft engines. The company still exists, and it is located in Esslingen.

Best regards,
Steve

Well I believe you found the answer, Steve (but how do you manage to know this ???!!!! ...) .

Thanks a lot, and here are the pictures of the part.

All the best from the south of France.

Gilles
