It seams this fits at the gearbox, il see how I get on :)

I paid 1400 for my 172 cup, the cam belt had been changed in late 2010, I bet I've spent close to another 1400 getting it all working well though! New battery, new alternator, new sump, 4 new tyres, getting the Chav stuff off and getting back to standard, all new disks and pads! New exhaust and...
