The correct numbering is front bank, from the crankshaft pulley 1 - 3 - 5 and rear bank, from the crankshaft pulley is 2 - 4 - 6, but as I said, I have a distant memory that TOAF reverses this order on the 2.5 KV6, so front bank, from the crankshaft pulley is 6 - 4 - 2 and the rear bank, from the crankshaft pulley is 5 - 3 - 1

Or am I just imagining it LOL

I think you might be remembering a post on the dark side, but that was the diesel engine (https://www.mg-rover.org/threads/cdt...h-toaf.836410/). Can't say that I've noted any peculiarities when it comes to the KV6 and Toaf.
