Does anyone recall who manufactured the aluminum Hi Point gas tanks? Was it Lyta?

I have 2 NOS boxes for '73 - '75 high breather 1.8 gal tanks. The manufacturer was Homerlite.  Let me check again if it says "from England", or where. - I'll be back with pics.

Thanks Guys this is good stuff.
I am trying to nail down who would have manufactured Hi Point Husky tanks in the 71-72 time frame.

I have one and it says "Made In England" on the box, so I always assumed Wassell

I have what I think is a Hi Point Husky tank, 3 gallon, I'm bringing to the Lebanon Indiana swap this Sunday along with a Puch, "75" MX model tank with new decals.  Each $200 OBO.
