The point which is opening when you see the "L" coming into the circular window is for the left cylinder.

okay thanks, we weren't sure if the L and R marks were for TDC or the firing point, so we used a dial gauge, all good now! I just really hope I can remember how to do everything that I learnt today! :)

The mark next to the letter is where the points should just open up - the same as where the dial gauge says the timing should be set.
