IT wasn't an oval, it was a washer with 2 sides filed in it and an elongated
hole so the washer could slide thru the bushing and grab when brought
perpendicular on the other side.  Russ has these, I remember looking at them
in his toolkit. I THINK I took a picture of them, but that would have been
10 years ago and I wasn't digital yet, so Id have to dig it out.

I wonder where those tools wound up?

That was a pretty fancy "oval washer" wasn't it? Isn't there a photo 
of it in the Bentley? Or am I remembering one of the tool catalogs?
