Based on the following image that MJ took, yours should be roughly where I have indicated in the attached image (a copy of yours). Something that might be relevant, and I can't remember if it is, but Botang's Hole may only be an issue of RHD cars. MJ will put us right on that.



EDIT: The following post has photos of the hole on a LHD car. These might give a better perspective on where to look:
