My engine bay is a little cramped. I don't own a Monaro. Should there be some form of visible window to view the level from the outside?
Just lift the plastic engine cover up at the front, and you will see the side of the pot. It's only held on my plastic clips that clamp the fuel rails. 
Apologies
I just had another look outside. Yes the steering fluid tank is transparent and obvious. I've been leading everyone down the garden path.
The tank I'm concerned with is black and opaque and I think attached to the rad. Maybe it's the coolant tank.
If it is the yes I am a plum.
Can we just delete this thread now please....

Don't worry, we were all there once. Which pot are you on about then? If that's not your car, have a look for another picture that looks like the car you are looking at.

It's an e46 BMW. Took the cap off and it's weird smelling pink liquid. Is that the fancy coolant cars use now?
Sorry, I thought you were on the HSV & Monaro forum. 
Pink is probably coolant. The tank for it is right next to the radiator, and the 'dipstick' should float loose. You should always measure the tank when cold, and it will probably be 3/4 empty. The white stick has the fill line on it, when the mark is level with the top of the tank.

I think the confusion here is that this is an E46 with an LS1 conversion. Hope the OP doesn't mind the pic being posted!
That's a good sleeper. Nice cam and heads and I'd cause a world of trouble upsetting the VAG superhatch / TT brigade.

We need an under-bonnet picture to identify the correct pot then.

Post away. Whatever pics you want. I had a look at the original build thread earlier and the pics aren't working anymore. That's a good sleeper. Nice cam and heads and I'd cause a world of trouble upsetting the VAG superhatch / TT brigade.
It is a good sleeper if you're trying to fool deaf people. Anyone with working ears can't really be too confused when they hear the roar from the engine and the squealing brakes. The 357ci badge on the back gives people another little clue.
