seem to be (4) hex caps/bolts of (4) different sizes on the body of the IP...is it one of those? top right? top left? bottom left? bottom right?
can you help me locate the sucker?
and then after i take off the cap, i just stick my finger in the hole and turn the motor over by hand til i see a 'slot' in my little mirror or feel a gap/slot with my finger/fingernail?

Someone that has had the bolt out for the timing vee on a 1985 injection pump. Please chime in and describe it please. Or someone with a proper service manual look it up and describe it.
I have never timed one of these later pumps. It will be a pronounced slot or vee. Perhaps using a screwdriver to feel for it may be better than your finger. Especially if the hole is small..
I only post this additional item as you may well be fatigued from working long hours. There are also enough issues at present without trying to deal with a stuck finger.
