There are no cowling mounted instruments. Three small instruments were mounted on the engine, and there were three small circular windows for mechanics to look though to see what the readings were. On the Bf 110 G-2, G-3 and G-4, this changed to a single triangular window, the tips of which were rounded, not pointed.
 
Ok technicality - you can see the holes.

A little bit more than a technicality. Here is what was bolted onto the engine. Top dial was propeller pitch; bottom left was engine temperature, and bottom right was oil pressure.

Weren't these more for the pilot's use while flying as they weren't replicated in the cockpit?
