The striker / fury has a rocker pin for the front upper wish bone as it is inboard shocks.

I have not taken one apart because they are a pig apparently.

Try googling or wait for someone more knowledgable!!

Sorry, just found your other posts regarding this.

my input is probably irrelevant

Maybe not furys and sylvias must have used something from the parts bin

Possibly a classic Mini front suspension upper arm pivot? I have a repair kit for one of my GTMs , will have a look at the weekend to see if it looks the same

Very easy bit of turning to make one?

At the rear Mini also uses a similar part but I don't recall the groove in the middle 1100 & 1300 and Allegro would have similar but probably now unobtainable.
The original XJ6 and other jags of that era also had a similar pin and needle rollers on the rear lower arms.

not had time to measure but should have seen that pretty sure its from mini front upper arm groove must have been turned in
Thanks for all replys Ali

It's not from striker as they just use a sleeve with a bolt through the middle.

Have just found my top arm repair kit.The overall length is the same as your picture but as you say it's minus the central groove. It might be worth modifying it further by drilling it through from end to end and drilling into eachend at the point it runs in the bearings, that way there is a better chance of getting grease where it's needed. The cheapest suppliers I found when looking for parts is Minispares
