There's a little cover that goes over the (timing marks) hole. Nothing bad will happen with it not being there, unless you're prone to droppings in there, like small rocks, nuts, beer bottle caps, etc.

cheers

depending which side of town you're on...

you could try U-pull it. theres a well ratted clubman at Elizabeth and there was a mini at Lonsdale few months ago. it's not the sort of part many people need so you'd probably pick it up pretty easy.

if on the northern side of town Blair Athol Auto Parts on Churchill Road will be able to sort you out

If you're in the south try Minisport on South Road (clovelly park) just down the road from the old mitsubishi factory.

Don't stick your finger (or anything else for that matter) in there.
