I'm unsure of how to tell the difference between an aussie / british etc etc helmet of that time I'v taken pictures of what marks I can see but I'm not sure were to look for them either . any help would be great . thanks

Yes, Australian Helmet No.1 Mk II late production-see this Helmet No.1, Mk.II - Australia - The Brodie Helmet and its derivatives

Would be nice to have an Aussie lid one day.

The most obvious clue to it being Australian is the lack of a rim trim applied to the edge. Cool lid and not a type you see in Blighty.
