6 Allen screws removed. Driver's (Even) Throttle Body removed - the wrong one - as I had removed the Odd Coil Pack and HT Cables
Whoever designed those 2 outer Allen screws to be placed almost directly under the throttle butterfly bar should be !
Alternator positively shot out into my waiting palms.
Rear two AMB Allen screws removed. Bracket out.
Access to Engine Pulley enabled (Once I've cleared up the quagmire of crap that has accumulated in The Valley).
No beer in the house to celebrate with -
BUT
Thanks to everyone's kindness and patience....
It didn't beat me

Sorry... Post Adendum insert here...
It turned out not to be the wrong one as I had to remove all the HT leads to gain a decent access and, when I started reassembly, the driver's Throttle Body had to be removed to gain access to put the Alternator Retaining Bolt/Nut back in.

OK, the rebuild has begun and I am in trouble already.
For those kind enough to have read, this all started with a Big Fuse supposition.
I had a very fiddly job getting to the fuse but, upon retrieval, found that it was solid.
Now I am trying to put the odd coil pack back in, I am trying to get the mess of cables at the
back of the 'V' sorted a little.
Whilst doing this I have found this Junction Block and free spade terminal in mid air on the driver's side.
Does anyone have any idea if they should be attached to anything and, if so, what ??
Sorry for being so dull.
(I can't find any of those wonderful 'yellow identifying tags' on them to give me a clue a la
