Hi,
From left hand(drivers side) of cross member close to left hand corner of battery to left hand corner of head. A bracket fits where heater pipe is. If you just google morris minor engines and request images loads will come up and show you what I am not explaining very well. Do not over tighten it as too much vibration will be felt through the car body.
