Cullen,
Zetec had plugs in the center between the two camshafts.  I'm thinking this 
motor is older. The angle on the end of the valve cover reminds me of the 
engines in the Opel GT (circa 1960's-1970's) but I don't think it is that 
engine either.  Being in Australia it may be an engine I am not familiar 
with.
