    I have to replace the bulwark cap tube on my project, it is a flattened tube approx 50mm/20mm, mild steel, approx 3mm wall.

    There are plenty of producers of flat-side oval tubes in Italy and all over the Europe.
    Some producers in Italy:
    http://www.marcegaglia.com/steel/carbon_steel_welded_tubes/product_range_tubes.html
    http://www.grupporapullino.it/eng/tubiovalisemiovaliequadri.htm
    http://www.satinox.it/ENGtubiOvali.asp
    http://www.padanatubi.it/product_detail/en/55982/Oval_sendzimir_tubes.aspx

    A quick search in Internet has revealed these producers or suppliers in your area, for example:
    http://www.preferredtubes.co.uk/flat_side_oval.html
    http://www.cherinproducts.co.uk/tubes.htm

    Cheers
