Hi @Colink
You are in the right place for the relays see your pic below I have marked it up red arrows, they are sat on a vertical holder that clips out, Mk2 Ph1 do have them there as I have an early one and sure both early and late version both had relays down there (alu bonnet and non alu...
It is a pain in the arse, there is a guide somewhere will see if I can find it as bracket and how you move it not clear as loom so tight and need to remove the torx from under the little cover in the door shut also from memory. Tight as to remove as had mine out recently and maybe why they...
Final update...
With the MOT passed, extensive road test complete, I can confirm she has survived and is just a lively as ever!

New inlet valve set £160

Spent a couple of hours tonight cleaning up and then resealing the rocker cover to stop the weep they all seem to get.
Timing belt kit and new seals on the way and hope to get all fitted and timed up again at the weekend
