This might sound crazy, but have you looked in your owner's manual or downloaded the PDF version from the MINIUSA Owner's Lounge (assuming you're in the US)? It will give you a top-down basic over-view and point out all the various tanks in the engine bay. In regards to the tranny, you'll see that when you look down into the engine bar on the driver's side, in a LHD car. The oil pan is on the underside of the engine (bolted to the bottom of the engine block) and not visible when looking into the engine bay. If you want an overly technical breakdown of ever nut and bolt in the engine, check out RealOEM regarding the R50.

EDIT: STLMINI beat me to the realoem link! If that's not what you're looking for, I don't know how many online resources you'll find. You could pick up the very detailed Bentley book or the somewhat simpler Haynes book. Or you could try to describe each part and we could take turns trying to guess what you're describing, pictionary-style!
