Mortar set up on engine cover
Here is a scanned pic (courtesy Mike Cecil's good books on BGC) showing the mortar set up on the engine cover. You can also see the RH side ammunition cover in place and the wood blocks to secure & locate the tube and bi-pod.
Unusual that the ration box is located in the RHR corner of the hull making the stowage of Vickers MG ammo redundant. My hull has the base plate brackets located there.
