Unless your mate has had a new engine put in then he dosnt know much.

Also black tops where early mk1's silvertops came out around 98-99 iirc and then silvertop 98bhp late 2000 onwards

yes, unless he has had something done to mean an engine rebuild.

the cat will be in down pipe for 98bhp, also the oil dip stick will be in the middle of the manifold, not to the right of it.

it looks perectly fine..

just think of the 4 primarys coming out of the head, instead of the dip stick sitting to the side of the manifold it sits between primarys 1-2 irc. may be 2-3
