Hi Theo
The pad with the No. on is top left of the engine pic. just behind the water
pump, the No. of this engine is for a SE/CS engine, hence the SP.
I hope this helps

No picture handy, but the model number is on the top on the engine block at
the front of the engine. Look underneath the upper radiator hose just to the
rear of the belt covers and you'll be close.
