Here are two more salvaged parts from a Lancaster that crashed in 1943.They were recovered at the time and stored away, hence the condition.The tubular piece has a moveable brass collar.It is about 8 inches long.Can anyone (like the experts who identified the last set of pieces I posted) tell me what they are and where in the aircraft they came from?

Definately a hand turning gear shaft from the merlin engines. The upper part, does it have any part numbers or anything on it?

The shaft is the hand turning gear extension from one of the engines.

Thanks for your reply I appreciate it.I am hoping that some of the people who identified the earlier pieces I posted pictures of will look at these as well.
