The damped Lyα and 21 cm absorption-line quasar PKS 1229-021 (z=1.038) has been mapped in detail with the VLA at seven frequencies, with polarimetry. It has a radio jet, whose rotation measure distribution at 0″.46 shows a clear and strong «oscillation» over its length, which is ∼35h 65 kpc at the absorption-line redshift of 0.395. This new, extended, intervenor probe combined with the optical absorption spectrum, well studied by Briggs and coworkers, suggests that the intervenor at z=0.395 is a «bisymmetric magnetic field» spiral galaxy, possibly similar to M81
