Yep. lspci does just this. output is

00.0b.0 Ehternet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. 
RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (Rev10)
00.0c.0 Ehternet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

eth0 is facing out  to the net set as DHCP eth1 faces internal network

Done.  (Im wondering why this does not happen on install)

Correct!

Done

Again done.  Although this is the setting given by the install

One very small point is that I had to remove the GATEWAY= line from 
ifcfg-eth1

Thanks a lot for your help
