Either
-wiper motor / scuttle

or
-top half of inlet manifold

or possibly both depending on personal preference & how big your hands are.

It may actually be possible without removing anything given sufficient determination but you will be working by touch and your arms will look as though you have been swimming with Piranha fish afterwards.

Crown motors! yes i heard that too! i was only there Wednesday last week, phoned them on thursday and they in administration!
I also removed my coil pack yesterday, wipers and scuttle off and i got to it ok, had to remove wiper motor mechanism to give space to actually remove it though!
where in Essex are you?
