Cylinder Head Help - Photo Please

I'm busy rebuilding a 2.0l engine to put in my 1.8l MX5. The base engine I'm using is from a Mazda 6 which has the oil dip stick running down the outside of the engine. On the MX5 the dip stick goes through the head and straight down into the sump. I think I have worked out what modification I need to make to the head to make it work on the MX5 but would appriciate a photo from anybody who may have a cylinder head with the rocker cover off showing where the dip stick goes through the head.

Hope that makes sense,

Cheers, Mike
