TR2/3/3A TR3 Engine lifting eye and bracket.

Afternoon:
Wife and her girl friend are off on a field trip to Texas so I am getting to spend some serious time on the TR, yea! As I work along I'm coming up with quite a few questions, next one is how and where do the front lifting eye and rear lifting bracket mount? Description would be great, pictures would be even better.

Thanks, Tinkerman.
 
Front to the timing chain cover, rear to a head nut and manifold nut. Pics are from a TR4 but the same, just ignore the way the ignition wires route thru a clip on the front lifting eye (that part is a 4 thing):

Thanks George, makes sense now!

Regards, Tinkerman
