There are three of those electro valves in the system, if they're located in the same place as on the mark 1 they're under the bonnet close to the bulkhead under the plastic cover at the left hand side, (same side as the battery to avoid confusion) I'm not too sure about the mark 2 but can't see any reason why they'd be moved elsewhere. Cant go and look it's peeing down out there.
Parts 1 & 2 in the drawing. Before replacing any of those I suggest a thorough check of the vacuum hoses connecting them to the other components, most failures are caused by leaky, damaged hoses rather than the electro valves.
