It is normally on the bulkhead, just behind the where the wiring loom goes into the bulkhead.

Is this a UK built MM?

The number Onne is on about is on the chassis number plate and that would be for the original engine. The number on the engine itself is located on a plate below the dynamo on the side of the engine block. Not unusual for this to be missing though!

OOPS I read this as chassisnumber...
I must be getting old

Yes, there should be a copper round plate on the engine, which polishes up quite nicely

If you want a picture give me a shout, I have a polished up engine in my container

Thank you Bill, you beat me to it!
