No, cast iron bore. I over thunk myself here...I'm really happy with the Delvac for bikes, but thought I might try something closer to the 30 weight recommended, and straight after found another online manual that recommended SAE40, so back to Delvac as being good.
Back from my exploritory trip, and found some SAE30 oils, mainly in the lawnmower section of several shops - they'd all be ok I reckon. More reshearch has me finding our only local oil blender doing a range of monogrades, some for lawnmowers, and some for diesel engines and transmissions. Harder for me to get hold of, but I think that's the way I'll go.
