Yes, of course, well spotted!

Mark, there would have been about fifty circular cooling fins around each cylinder and they always seem to be stripped from the crashed cylinders that I’ve seen so the crash site will probably be covered with them. The cooling fins have different internal diameters, depending on the thickness of the cylinder at that point, but the exterior profile is circular with a diameter of about nine-and-a-half inches.
