Plenum on backwards
EGR on opposite side.
Wrong sump
Old style DIS pack mounting
Dipstick on opposite side (as a result of the sump I suspect)
No oil filler extension

Probably others to.....I suspect it was probably originaly destined for a Saab.....

I'm a bit lost now!!

I'm assuming the description has changed since you looked at as from what i can make out from the one pic, its of the back of the engine so the plenum is the right way round with the rear mulit ram bits on the left and the breather pipes are in the right place, also from that pic you cant see the EGR as its hidden behind the plenum on the right.

Either that or the engine in my Omega is bolted in the wrong way round!!

would this not be a Y32SE? As it clearly has coil-per-cylinder and not DIS pack from the current photo ... or was there a Y30SE made - a lower-emission version for the yanks?

Earlier picture clearly showed DIS. Also, EGR can be seen, so 3.0l
