Can any one tell me please what the diameter the crankshaft locating pin is for a '94 defender 300tdi, the one that screws into the wading plug hole.

I have three different size lockers in a Land Rover timing kit, all with the same size thread but with different diameter pins.

I'd just like to have the correct one in my hand when I crawl underneath to do my timing belt next week.
 
From memory it is the one about 5mm dia.-On mine there are 3 positions where the pin locates,careful you choose true tdc
 
there are often more than 1 slot as same flywheel fits earlier engines if unsure of tdc watch valves no1 cylinder or when key is at top if front cover off ,smallest diameter pin fits 300
