        I have one also for our Westy, it actually came with our Westy when we bought it from there PO some 20 years ago.  We have connected 20 pounders and 60 pounders when camped out on the beach in Mexico for 3 ~ 4 months, no problem.  One end is a fill valve adapter the other end is the 20 pounder or 60 pounder adapter, Easy peasy. Go see your local propane supply outlet.  May not be legal in all localities so beware.
