Just ran downstairs and had a look!
You'll find it under the exhaust manifold, directly below the outlet for
number 4 cylinder. It's a 11/16" or 3/4" bolt sticking horizontally
into the block. Off memory there's a fibre washer that goes underneath
it which rips apart as soon as the bolt is turned so a new one and maybe
some plumbers sealing tape might be in order.
hope you can find it!
