+**Cam Cover to Adapter Gasket**: \\
+-E1965 adapters use gasket (32522-37). ((DR Dick of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1637862&page=4)) \\
+The parts catalogs say the gasket was available for 1958-1969 XLCH. \\
+However, gaskets are known to lose their structural integrity (used on movable mount systems) resulting in the hub working loose from the cover. \\
+HD got away from the gasket in mid 1965 for this reason. \\
+So L1965-1969 setups don't use a gasket. \\
+A bike with no seals barely leaks because the mag drive gears don't get very much oil. \\
+The oil they do get is "splash" oil. A very small amount of oil gets to drive gears by oil passing thru #2 cam bushing. \\
