Hi John,

You wouldn't see the hole in that picture.

It's in the vertical front facing side of the bell housing, so in that picture, between the bellhousing drain and the front tail shaft, directly above the sway bar.

I'll get the young bloke to take a photo and post it up.

Oh. In that case I would be very surprised if there wasn’t some kind of cover.

Hi all,
Here is a photo, now I've got my brain in gear, it definitely should have a cover.
The bigger of the threaded hole is were the locking pin goes.
For reference the bolt heads you can see are the rear sump bolts.
Sorry for the crappy photo, it's right behind the sump, with poor access.
