After having a better look on line and that thread that Mick put a link to ( cheers Mick) i think its a 070, but heres the pictures that Alec requested. thanks

Yes, that's an 070. The clutch is the 3-shoe type (behind the washer) whereas an 090 clutch is 6-shoe. Under the top cover you can see the decompression lever goes side to side whereas the 090 goes front to back. On the top cover you can just see the remains of the white paint on the Stihl lettering and '07' under the tape of the label in the air filter cover.

 

The top cover with the cast Stihl lettering appears to have been in use from the beginning up to the early 1980s. It was then replaced with a rivetted label. The orange paintwork suggests a date of around 1975 onwards, so roughly 1975-1985. Everything you can see goes together as original.
