Renault DTN 40 parts

[Chris carter]

Hi all,
Can anyone help? I have an Eastwood 24 cabin cruiser. It has a Renault DTN 40 engine code 688-42. I'm looking for a crank seal and rocker cover gasket. Plus information on is the crank pulley bolt is left or right hand thread.
I can find some parts but they seem to be mainly in Germany or Holland. I believe the same engine was fitted to the Renault 5 and possibly the Renault 8/10?
Any help appreciated
Chris

Hi - I can’t add much practical help other than to confirm they were indeed the same base engine as the Renault 5. I had one for a couple of years in a 27’ open boat and it gave me no problems at all.
