There is another thread or three going about the compensator already but I have only a simple question.

Does having the hole in the bottom of the comp housing mean that the comp has a grease fitting?

Or do all of the housings have the hole and the fitting is hit or miss?

Almost certainly. As far as I am aware the hole in the housing was drilled by Morgan to suit the grease nipple. So if you have the hole in the housing you should have the nipple. Unless, possibly a Centa could have been fitted inside a housing that had already been drilled. Unlikely but we are talking about a Morgan.
Pretty easy to see the nipple through the hole or through the hole in the top where the steering rack sits.

I agree if you have the hole drill your car was upgraded for nipple.

Airedales will always make a car look better, scruffy animals.

An Airedale with taste!
Made it back after a couple of more days of wandering up the country in the glorious sunshine. Take it you made it to the ferry for an uneventful crossing?
