Where Is My Engine Number?

Hi
I just cannot find the engine number on my JPS plus2s. I have looked everywhere on the engine (it is still in the car) but must have gone engine number blind. I have also gone through these forums and google looking for something that tells me where it is, so that I do not have to suffer the embarrassment of asking here.
I found it on my other cars easily enough, but I just cannot remember where.
Go on someone put me out of my misery. Where is the bugger?
Many thanks
Berni

Zetec+ 2 under const, also 130S. And another 130S for complete restoration. Previously Racing green +2s with green tints. Yellow +2 and a couple of others, all missed. Great to be back 04/11/2021 although its all starting to get a bit out of control.

Berni, its on the offside of the engine, under the carbs, between the fuel pump and the distributor / oil pump, on a flat machined part of the block. You have to be a contortionist to see it though..........

To pin it down a little more... The pad that the engin mount is bolted to projects out about 3/4 inch. The top of this pad is horizontal and that's where the number will be. The characters are fairly tall, but thin due to being manually stamped.

Hi Again
Found it. I never would have though, so thanks again. Talk about hard to read. Once I got the grime off they are indistinct under the paint.
