For the sake of completeness (and I know you don't want this but I guess someone will see it and ask some time in the future!) the length of my M102 to the end of the pulley section of the fan is 66cm - 69cm for fan blade clearance.

Right now that's done

The centre of the crankshaft pulley to top of the engine measurement isn't so easy to do in a car with a radiator in place but I'm pretty sure that it is 41 cm (with an error of about 0.5cm)

Comparing that with my previous measurement of 58.5 cm for the total height the bottom of the sump is 17.5 cm lower than the centre of the crankshaft pulley.

(On a dry day I'm prepared to check that!)
