It's what you are calling a valve cover. The Black painted thing on top.
Look at my web page http://members.cox.net/spitlist/Joe'sPage.htm and you
will see how it looks on the engine (and polished).

What brass expansion tank? Are we looking at the same item? What I
saw was too corroded over to identify any metals except aluminimumin.
Was that big thing on top not a valve cover? If not, where would the
valve cover go? Tell me that, huh? Okay, the fitting on the loft
for a tube did look suspicious.
