yes and #1 is cambelt end.
if you look at the replacement dizzy you'll probably see marks where it was bolted on the donor car, fit it the same way and it should be close enough to run then you can tweak it with a timing light.

thanks rj just swapped it over, and set it the same as the old dizzy, bought a strobe light today and timing was too far retarded which was making engine run hot all sorted now
