I was talking to my brother this morning about the smoke stack as I was fairly certain the one on it now is incorrect.  This one is roughly 4 inches long and I believe the proper one is about 3 inches.  Also, this one has been forced onto the tank's fitting (flared out a bit at the bottom).  Come to find out he took the one off the steamroller because it had a little dent on the side and it's a little wobbled at the top.  I rather have a dinged up stack that is correct than a straight one that is incorrect! 

So he'll send that stack when he sends the Mamod SR1a steamroller :-)

Here is a photo of what he sent me.  Looking at the photos from @Weedensteam website the #646 came with both shinny and black smoke stacks.  The wobbled top is on the other side of the ding.
