Jim, It has a plate between the carb and manifold. It is the connector that the breather from the left hand side of the valve cover (looking from the front of car) connects to. The connector has snapped off and somebody has filled it with something that looks like body filler. I am guessing that this will be needed for emissions for IVA but that I will get away with a K&N breather filter on top of the black plastic part that would bormally go into the bottom of the air filter. I will check tomorrow to see if the connector is still available as I work at a Ford dealer.
Can I ask where you saw the section about laminating in the spreader plates for the seats? I have been looking through the inspection manual but cannot find it. This is my first car to go through such a test as all the ones I have built before were pre SVA, so just the good old MOT.
