The marking for No. 1
tube on the injector end ring, just above the baffle at the 9:00 position
on the injector.
Picture 2 of 2.
It appears to be a short, squat "1" with an arrow above it pointing to the
injector, presumably because the No. 1 tube is a fuel-up tube. (Recall that
fuel flows
through the tubes comprising the thrust chamber to provide regenerative
cooling; every other fuel is a "down" tube, carrying fuel from the forward end
of the engine to the exit plane, where the fuel return manifold then redirects
the fuel back up an adjacent "up" tube.)
