Hi Paul
Of course I do like a fascinating road going 3SE kept in original conditions.
Generally I prefer unrestored bikes, unless it is strictly obliged.
Be proud and get fun with your 3SE.
I join an old article, of 1995, from Legend Bike, an Italian motorcycle magazine. Thebike reported is the mine.
Hope you and anybody can read or translate the article.

All the best and Happy new year to all 3SE (and 3S, 3SW, 3H, 3HW, 3SC, etc) enthusists.

Hi Napoli, thanks for posting the article, didn't know about it. I'm quite sure a friend of mine has this issue, because he's a great fan of Aermacchi motorcycles! Best regards   Paul

Hi Napoli
Really a disaster! Maybe i can help you, just send part numbers (on inside of the case) and length of the case as well. I know a guy nearby (in Switzerland) who might have at least the outer one.
Another possibility: http://www.cornucopia-enterprises.de/indey.html
He doesn't list the part on his website, but it's worth asking him!

Hello boys.
My situation seems to turn better, thanks to a very kind and unknown Swiss friend found via internet. He told me some sites for search and made himself a research for me: results were highly positive, but I stand by because my mechanic convinced me for welding.
I will tell final results.
Bye
