Here it is Nige:
The orientation of the pulley is how it would appear on the car with the engine aligned in 'safe' condition.
At approximately one o'clock is the groove which I made to correspond with the 'SAFE' arrow on the engine mounting plate casting.
You'll see that 130 degrees in an anticlockwise direction is a little notch in the pulley edge. I have removed the surface corrosion but there is no evidence of any wording as mentioned in RAVE. This notch is a mystery since it cannot represent anything useful on my engine.

Agreed Nige. With the engine locking pin in place, I noted 2mm of rotational play in the mounting of the pulley. Behind it, the notch on the crankshaft toothed wheel aligns with the 'speech bubble', though not precisely:
