Fuel Tap Identification

Can anyone identify these fuel taps? They may be Rickman, but I'm not sure. They are on a 3cl I'm working on.

Once identified, does anyone know where I can get new rubber inserts for them, preferably in Australia?

And it would be nice to have a pair, not one straight through, and one at an angle, so if anyone has one they want to sell, please advise.

(Hope the picture works, never attached a photo before...)

Regards

Greg

They look like new stock (ie small) Paoli taps. Grant will be along presently to confirm.. :D
 
They look similar to the ones I found the other day in my bits draw that originally graced the Jarama, apart from the levers on mine which are straight not tapered like those.  No idea where you'd get new rubbers from, but I made a few (simple rubber punch kit is all that is needed) when they ripped apart, which is why I replaced them - that and the barbs falling off.

Based on some of the other threads I may refurbish them and put them on e-bay for ?1,000,000  :D
