Series II 88 Ute Engine number

[Nighthawk]

Hi All seeking info on where the serial number is and the engine number? I think this is a 2.25L.

Is the serial number on the gearbox tunnel cover? Cant find an engine number? Look forward to advice.

Not to forget, Need a 8 bolt water pump, the rare type , anyone know where to get one? I'm seeing 2 different 8 bolt configurations, is that right. My Parts list shows only one 8 bolt type for SII for 2L and one for the 2.25L . Advice greatly appreciated. NH.

The engine number on two and a quarter engine is at the front left of the engine block just
below the front bottom exhaust manifold stud.
The engine number is arranged vertically on a flat section of the engine block.

The vehicle or chassis number will most likely be on the rear left spring hanger, as well as
stamped on an aluminium plate fixed to the firewall/bulkhead, directly in front of the gear lever.
If the vehicle has a heater, the plate will be fixed to the dash, "most likely" to the right of the
steering column.
If the vehicle was not an Australian CKD import, the chassis number may be on the front right
spring hanger.

Confused yet?

Hope this helps.
Cheers, Mick.
