This post may prove to be more related to MGB's than Midgets but I'm posting it both places in the hope that someone knows the answers.

I'm seeking an MG rectangular oil pressure gauge for a custom dash project. I've seen both mechanical and electric versions. I've also seen one gauge with a chromed, raised lip, front bezel while most the gauges have had simple, flat folded sheet metal holding the glass in place. Now the questions:

1) Does anyone know the years when electrical vs mechanical oil pressure gauges were used?
and the similar question...
2) Does anyone know the years when each bezel type was used?
(flat vs raised chrome)

For visual cues, see:

and flat bezel mechanical --

Thanks for your help.
