I think its the one without the holes on the upright bit, the holes are for horns which on your car would be on the engine bay floor. They would be easily welded up though if that panel is in better order!

The Series MM bottom hose fits on the right side of the rad. The bottom of the rad slopes down to the bottom hose, therefore the panel also slopes down on the right

I think the result should be, to make from 2 panels, 1 perfect, because the top from the MM panel is damaged...

The one with holes for horn mounting is for Series 11 or later.
