Meanwhile I had another trial fit of the exhaust manifold and inlets to check for any obstructions. The last time this was done the car was not complete and on the road, so things such as the clutch and heater return hose are now in place and will need to be moved. This should be no great problem as I had intended to replace both items anyway.

How did you get the roll pins out of the pump body? I can't see how to do it without destroying them - then I have the problem of finding replacements :-) I've found the large "o" rings for a £1 each locally.
I chose not to remove the roll pins, instead I carefully parted the plates, letting them slip over the roll pins. The plates were split using a pair of large flat blades to lever them apart, but being careful not to mark the joining surfaces.
It is not so hard to remove the pins once they are only captive in one of the plates, should you need to refurbish the surfaces.
