Barney,

you can use these ones, if you like:

http://homepage.oninet.pt/541mhc/MGA_Engine_Assembly-4.jpg

I will look in the several hundred pictures I have and see if there are any 
that might suit you better

Since I still have the (now complete) chassis without the body on, let me know 
if you want anything more specific. I can go to the garage and take it!
I also have a friend nearby that is restoring a 1600 MkII

Best,

Rui
