Default Can anyone post a picture of their oil cap?

The d2 I just bought has no oil filler cap. The parts places are giving me ones that are too wide and don’t clear the hard line just outboard of the valve cover. Can someone post a pic of the correct cap installed and uninstalled so I can find it online? Please

That looks what I got. Is there an extension tube rising up from the valve cover?

Go to a scrap yard and yank one off of an old Disco 2 or Range Rover P38 engine. Maybe a Disco 1 engine also?
Btw... who sold you a Disco 2 with no filler cap and tube? How did you drive it home? hell.. what else is missing then ? lol
