The top picture looks very much like this:-



If it is, then it looks an awful lot like a Lucas pump. This one is set at TDC no 1 cylinder. The bolt goes through the flange into the pump body. I've added blobs of tippex too, to make life easier.

What is the engine number? Stamped on the flat bit on the block below injectors 3&4.
