Looking for the fuel cap bolt pattern for original cap.

I'm not sure whether it's original, but the ERA's filler is 9 holes on a 150mm circle.

Nine holes is correct; here's a Gelscoe magnesium cap:-
But hard to believe that Broadley (or FAV) would have been designing in millimetres...? Wonder if it's 9 x 6" on originals...

Sorry I ment 'have you got two spare'.... I haven't got my fuel caps yet, although when opened there will be another lockable fuel cap there. Also I need to weld in a 'tube' to provide protection between the fuel line and the interior of the car.... I think this is a pic of a gelsco car showing the shroud.
