I was wondering if somebody might be able to identify the parts shown in the photo below. They are Sea Hurricane related, but apart from that I have no idea. The only markings appear to be on the circular brass object, however all I can make out is the S.
Any help would be great,
Johnnie

Thanks for the replies on this. It’s funny how easy it is to see where/how things would have been used when somebody tells you!! I couldn’t for the life of me work out what the dish shaped object was.

The dished object with the studs was used in the Halifax to mount the oxygen cilinders upright in the oxygen crate in the port side of the flight engineers position, don’t know if it was used in other aircraft as well.

The last item is a cowling fastener. The castings – maybe off the engine/magneto etc. Others may be able to ID those for you – where’s Merlin Pete…?
