Hi Gerard, Civvy models had a 'minimum oil level' transfer in gold on the oiltank...Most wartime military models were left unmarked though I think some early models used the transfer. Postwar the military oilgrade was sometimes applied (painted in white)..'OMD 330', but this was not the same oil grade code as the wartime one and was not applied universally.....Ian

The 'oil drain reminder' transfer is probably from a Triumph..M20s never had this....Ian
