12A Freak housing - what IS this??
http://www.ebay.com/itm/MAZDA-12A-ROTOR-HOUSING-GENUINE-PART-RX2-RX3-RX4-RX7-ROTARY-WANKEL-10A-12A-13B-/151182394789?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item23332c45a5
I have never seen a housing like this! Is is me or does this NOT have an INtake port??
And then there are the 3 exhaust ports....
Anyone?

Clearly the seller has no idea what it is, based on their description.
PS; unless you have a peripheral-port engine, the rotor housing never has an intake port. They're on the irons.
Weird looking thing, though. Note the additional dowel-pin hole complete with o-ring land, inboard of the 'normal' one.
The three small exhaust ports were probably to provide more support for the early apex seals.
