just noticed that the oil pipe that runs from the crankcase to the cylinder head (right handside) has started to get worn away by the clutch cable rubbing against it, has anybody else encounted this before.

There's a little plastic separator clip on mine where they run alongside each other so it doesn't rub - has yours moved/broken ?

If you twist it round a bit to where it's rubbing - and you could make another if needed from one of those plastic ties used in packing.
