And to the OP, just for clarification, the little green mark on the oil filter cover is just a quality control mark applied at the factory during engine assembly as visual verification the cap was torqued to the correct specification (i.e. it will seal correctly and not leak). It is not an index marking for the threads.
Thanks mate I shall have to have a squiz underneath my car next time im ready to jack it up (this will save me a heap of time instead of jacking each side up!)
