Stevo,
Sorry, but they switched to the RH passenger side on the 42's. Just ahead of the cowl. The engine # is easy, right above the water pump.
HTH, Bob

wow that # is much easier to read then the one on my 46.
When a Doctor "saves a Life" it does not necessarily mean that that life will ever be the same as it was, but he still saved it. My 46 may not be as it was but it is still alive.
