Can anyone tell me which corner of the 2.1TD cylinder head shows the gasket cutout notches which identify the gasket thickness? I suspect it is the rear right hand corner (looking from the front of the car)but before I start moving things out of the way to get a better look I would appreciate confirmation that I'm looking in the right area. Thanks.

It is the rear n/s corner, but beware you can't really see with the fuel heater mounted and also some replacements don't have the markings on.
I recently fitted a Payen MLS gasket and it was graded on the pack, but no marks on the gasket tab, so I dot punched three marks..  The last Payen MLS I fitted did have holes for markers. |
