Valve diameter and length might be useful. Picture of tuba…
Is it a Holton or a Holton by Yamaha, etc.

Did some Couesnon tubas also get made/stencilled as Holtons?
I am blanking on precisely what gave me that impression...

I'm fixing this up for a friend in college(tuba is his secondary instrument) and it's missing the second and third valves. Hope this helps.
All I know is that its a Chinese make Holton.

That is probably a Yamaha-made YBB-104 or -105 if it is Holton-branded. If you can find a place (a middle school, perhaps) that has these you can confirm that the parts will interchange. Take photos of ALL the parts you need, and post them here. It is likely that one of us can order new ones or might have old ones. If it is NOT a Yamaha stencil for Holton the parts might not interchange.
