Taken picture with iPhone, cannot attach
Its a 12 valve, the HT leads connect to the cap which is at right angle to the engine on the right hand side, as you look at it.
If this is not very clear, I will have to download on PC
Thank you do much

Is this a 2FE engine? Check the engine No on the rego sticker or on the compliance plate, and does it have a top front engine cover made of plastic with ribs mounded into it?

Thank you all for the reply's.
The engine number IS G6 306346
If you mean ribs moulded and traveling from front to back of the top of the engine, then yes.
I have downloaded photo, hope this will be more clearer to you.
Many thanks once again

Mhpautos, thank you so much.
I have done over 100,000 Kms and was getting a bit worried.
You have made my day.
Thanks again

Another note is belt driven timing almost always uses plastic covers that attach on end of valve cover.
