the view I was looking for is the actual Starboard view (as opposed to the starboard rail view...hehe)
The red arrows show the angle I am trying to see.
The green arrows show where a piece is missing. This should not effect the function though in most machines.

This site shows a good comparison. I suspect your's is a Frister & Rossmann, but the starboard face will tell for sure.

So there *is* a piece missing. It looked that way but I couldn't see any rough edges.
I'll have a look at that URL when I get home (at work ATM) and let you know.

Funny thing is I used the name you saved without actually looking at which side it was... It is the Port side I wanted to see....
The trick I was taught (in the USAF no less) was that "Port" and "Left" are both the same length...

Ok- is it your left as you are facing the front of the ship while on/in the ship? Or to your left as you were looking toward the front of the ship? I'm seriously left/right challenged, without my ring would have a hard time remembering which was which. It's like when you are face to face with someone, your "right" is their "left".
