Okay, I just need confirmation please.
From what I can gather the picture below, of the auxiliary Relay Board, taken with the whole bracket removed and twisted 180 degrees, shows the DME main relay in white on the right, then the middle orange relay is for the fuel pump, and finally the oxygen sensor relay?

Is this correct?
Thanks in advance.

I reckon you are correct.

Easy way;
DME relay has 5 legs
Fuel pump relay has a green/violet wire(to fuel pump!)
'Other' one is the lambda relay

You can never be certain, since the individual relay brackets are easily unclipped from the 'master' bracket, and can be put back in any order.
What daimlerman says is the way to be sure.
