(1) the holder on the left is for the small oil can. The 'holder' on the right is an overflow tank with the end cut out and apparently fits a bottle - not a standard fitting.

(2) the tank on the right is a CMP overflow tank. Don't recognise the one on the left.

The one on the left looks like the bracket and overflow tank for a Ford Lynx. The bracket is made to suit the angles on the right side of the engine bay. The tank is actually an identical size to the other although in the photo of the two tanks, the left one looks smaller.

This is mine.

Thanks Rick, not owning a Lynx, I'd not seen one of the tanks close up.
