It was the centrifugal oilfilter ( Lower pulley ).

That made me look for Fiats & Sinca's.   :)

Wow - you know your cars and components. I can usually spot a small block Chevy, but not much else.

Actually, I had this saved as a Simca Rush 'Super' Engine

 A new engine, the famous Rush 1.3 L unit with a five-bearing crankshaft, was fitted to the Arondes beginning from October 1960. A 70 hp version of the engine, called Rush Super, debuted in September 1961 in two models - the Montlhéry Speciale saloon and Monaco Spéciale coupé.
