This photo is from the front of the engine looking back toward the flywheel. The timing chain cover has been removed. The silver fuel pump pushrod has come further out of its hole and has slid all the way down to the pipe plug that was shown in the first photo. The pipe plug seals the hole that was made for the push rod when the block was machined. The push rod extends up to a lobe on the camshaft that pushes the rod out. The spring in the fuel pump pushes the rod back via the fuel pump lever arm.
Do not attempt to remove the pipe plug on the outside of the block. Some previous owner tried and buggered the hex hole in the plug on the block for the pictures.
