In which case, get it on a code reader. Undoubtedly be a 64 (and a 92, which can be ignored).  A nice drive up the A46 to West Bridgford would see it on Marks DTM Calib's tech2 :y

2.0DTi, not many of them about. Thankfully!

Not even sure a tech2 can read the ecu's on them  :-\

Needs a code reader on it but in the meantime check every vac pipe including the connection to the Vac pump on the back of the block.

Vectra B is probably OBD2 compliant... an Omega with that lump almost certainly isn't  :-\
