At the rear of the engine, on the left hand side (driver's side for US 
cars), there is a timing inspection window which allows you to see the 
flywheel.  There are a couple of marks on the edge of the flywheel - a "0" 
which identifies TDC and a "|" which identifies the correct timing for that 
particular engine (new flywheels need to have the "|" engraved by the 
mechanic).

These marks should be lined up to the edge of the casting in the centre of 
the window - see Haynes or Bentley.
