hi there,
anyone got a lower timing pointer , the one that bolts on and you set the crank pulley with,
it apears to be no longer listed on etkaand maybe superceeded to a all plastic version

your right the lower one is now part of the plastic casing, if you buy a G40 one and even give them the right part number VW send you one with a plastic pointer rather than the one with the hole in the casing for the metal one that attaches to the block.

ordered my plastic lower cover today, see what it looks like when it arrives  ???

new g0 timing cover lower comes with a moulded plastic pointer !
which i managed to break off ! leaving about 15mm :'( but it did stick out about an inch and a half ???and only really needs to be about 15mm if the timing marks are on the inside lip of crank pulley which mine are ;D
