Here`s a manual for the engine which should give you some idea of where things are scooterdoc.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=manualsgenericsandstandards&action=display&thread=5329
The valves are on the cylinder head inside an alloy cover, if you have a look at the manual it will explain things with more detail.
There is a dipstick/filler for the engine oil on the right hand of the engine just behind the fan guard. The drain plug is on the bottom of the engine, there might be two. One is a simple drain plug, the other has a mesh filter inside to filter the oil and catch any crap floating around.
The 4T oil is normally labelled as Scooter 10/40w, although I`ve used normal car 10/40 with no problems.
Transmission/gear oil normally comes in 125ml tubes which is enough for the 50cc models. It might take some searching on the rear of the casing to find the drain and fill bolts.
You shouldn`t need to replace the battery as the quality is normally ok. Easiest way to get a replacement is take it to an auto battery shop and let them match it up. There will be numbers on it and of course the positioning of the terminals and external dimensions matter so it will fit inside your battery box.

Nope, Ministry of Transport

Welcome ewest, does your scoot look like this one. (not mine, just an image off the net)

It would probably be easier if you just replied to your original two posts rather than start new ones. That way people can keep track of progress on your problems.
I`m presuming first that you have checked the battery is receiving voltage from the charging system when the scoot is running ?
Also you mention about the ignition wiring possibly being wrong, this was something which we were trying to sort out in your other thread

Sorting out one problem at a time would be good.
As for your battery it is possible for two companies to have differing opinions on its state. Some batteries will read good even when they have a dodgy cell.
The clocks on our works bikes are on all the time (or they wouldn`t keep time), they only draw a very small amount of current so shouldn`t really drag down a battery unless it`s left for a considerable period of time. As for the constant 12:00, have you tried re-setting it to the correct time. If you can`t do that then there may well be something wrong with the clock itself. In which case you can pull the red wire which goes to it and leave it dormant.
First of all please confirm that your battery is receiving a charge when the scoot is running or we will end up going round in circles.

Bit confusing, you say you`ve removed all the plastics, but need lights for the front fairing. So are you keeping the front fairing ? If so why not use the original lights that were in it ?
Or are you saying that you`ve dumped ALL the plastics and just need front lights to mount on a bracket on the frame headstock ?

I think it was powder yellow buddy
