Does  anyone know if a 1500 engine valve rocker cover is interchangeable
with a  1300 engine?

AFAIK, any valve cover from the original 803cc Standard Eight motor up to  
the last 1493cc Spitfire motor is interchangeable with any other. Other than  
vent/nonvent issues, the only other factor is that 948 and 1147cc "front oil  
cap" valve covers won't fit under a Spitfire bonnet (guess how I know that).
