I think i have a picture of the brest before i boarded it up. I'll post it tonight when I get home. Thanks for your help.

Can't post a picture as the brest is boarded over. Basically someone has taken away part of the brest to place the header tank on. The combined size of both brests is about 13-14 foot across, they curve up in a arrow head shape and merge at the top into one. On the left brest is a 'notch'...

Yes TexMex, i am looking to drill trough the external wall. Thanks for your help.
