More great pictures and thank you. I must confess I hade no idea how much hard work you had done to FV1609.
I have seen the X reinforcement under the wing on the air intake side as it is intact and I have rested on it peering into the engine bay before. The nearside one is Kerry Packered I must admit! I have seen the stepped edge on the locker lids and wonder from your description if this coincides with a slight projection to the liner insert that is the locker bin itself so that the lid 'nests' over the upstand to prevent weather ingress?
I have highlighted what can just about be seen to be an upstand where the arrow is pointing?? But I am speculating.
