Overall view of the No. 2 side of the bobtail thrust chamber.

Note the main LOX valve at the top.

Also note the flat portion of the fuel inlet manifold directly below the MLV. On an actual thrust chamber, there would be a fuel inlet here with flange onto which the fuel high pressure duct would be bolted.
