kool cheers bud, its ment to bolt inbetween the drive chain, in those two holes, any ideas???  i have this problem as i am piecing the whole engine togther as i started with a bare block

just looked on vagcat, and am i right in thinking the part i am on about is only used of the 1w engine and not needed on th py engine???

Well, that pic is how mine was fitted mate (PY). I didn't have anything left over either. 

And yes, looking at the ETKA that is 1W engine only.

Just fitted oil pump on my block this weekend, had the same head scratch and came to the conclusion it must be for "the 1w or something".

Checked the spec on chain tension. Haynes said 1.5-2.5mm defection. Seemed fairly snug.
