My old topic where both DG and dave the builder informed where to find this slot for locking crank (between Dec. 14-16 2021). Dave even enclosed the picture but this is picture disappeared from the topic.

I cannot find the slot in the bloc. I was lookin for it around oil filter area and around lower engine mount area but cannot find it. Do I have to go under the car or can I see from above. What is the direction to put the locking tool in? Is it the direction from the water pump end to clutch end or from front to back. Strange to be that blind. Could you help, should start the job on Friday and be ready on Saturday (same week).

from underneath it's a gap between the sump casting and block ,near the oil level sender .front engine mount (oil filter is above it)   
the locking tool goes in the gap and into a slot in the flywheel(and you need to rotate engine to bang on target to get the lock in)  lock is held in place with a bolt you need to remove, as per pic
sorry but the pic is massive and i don't know how to resize ,just copy it to your pc to view
