There is a wrench you don't have on Ebay. I believe the screw driver handle is larger than yours (and wooden) for the 350, more like the picture in the parts manual. Check with MoPar, he sold me the tools I needed.

Could you post the link or ebay item number? Thanks!
Steve, I've come to determine that the drawing of the tool kit in the Parts Manual is not the most reliable/accurate depiction of what should be included in the kit. The Owner's Manual picture is the one I'd trust. You'll see in that one that you have 3 screw driver blades which consist of one flat blade and 2 Phillips headed blades.The bolt & pin at the top are indeed the tools used for timing.
This is the best I can do trying to remember from 1968 what the tool kit in the new 350 I purchased contained. The tools were like the picture above from the owner's manual. The wood handled screwdriver would be correct for earlier 90 models, but not the 350. The 350 screwdriver handle was red plastic with the BS emblem. I'm 99% sure the 90 standard I had before the 350 did have the wood handle, but I sold that bike in about 1967. The 350 kit does not contain a plain round bar for driving the spark plug wrench. The larger screw driver bit served that function.
On a side note, I believe the individual in this photo has taken a nasty spill and may have suffered a bump to the noggin which has resulted in him trying to remove the drain plug bolt with a screwdriver. Hopefully the “fog” in his head cleared up soon and he was able to begin his search for a right side carb cover to replace the one that now has a hole in it from the brake pedal.And to think that all this was documented in the Owner’s Manual..... wow!
