I'm not sure if this is the correct jack point. I have it under the front bolt on what looks to be a centre frame point between the two front wheels. But there is also one a little further back.

Please confirm the correct hydraulic jack mounting point to position this jack for the purpose of lifting the vehicle onto 2 front jack stands.This picture is taken from the passenger side(RHD)

This picture is taken from the passenger side(Right-hand drive), behind front-left wheel, under passenger side sill. Looking towards right-hand front side of the vehicle.

Is this the Nissan NP200? The owners manual shows to jack from the sill -

However there will be other strong places underneath that will be suitable jacking points.

Where you have the jack doesn’t look suitable to me. That looks like an engine mounting point, but I may be wrong.

The area around the anti-roll/sway bar mount looks solid -

I would be very careful if you are trying to jack the whole of the front end of the vehicle up at the same time, that would be a lot of weight to put on a single point and also on the jack.

I’ve just done a Google search for an “NP200 lower engine mount”. This is what it looks like -

This is definitely what you are jacking on -

You are lifting the weight of the front of the vehicle using the engine, which is not a good idea, you could cause all sorts of damage. Even the bolt on the other end of the mount doesn’t look substantial enough to use as a jacking point.
