Default Naked engine bay pics...
I've finally stripped the engine bay, welded and ready for degrease. I've noticed i seem to have far too many holes, some are obviously for extra wiring but some i'm not so sure if they are factory or not.
Hence why i'm asking for some engine bay pics. Thx for any help.

A game of "spot the difference"?
Both look excellent, but there are differences in the number of holes.

Mines a 64 from South Africa so probably has some differences, like the chain for the radiator blind.

That's really useful guys, thanks.
I can see i have way too many holes, but there are a few that seem stock and not diy drilled.

Those pics show the early and late inner wing chsnges too, ribbed vs reinforcing plate.

No coil hole, where does your coil sit then, Burdekin?

Under the battery/brake booster. It doesn’t have the armoured cable.
