It should fit as lifting eye, dip stick tube bracket and then transfer pipe.

The bolt should have a spacer on it that about 8mm deep.....is this present?

The spacer is definitely there and I have them in the order you have said.

If I get a shorter bolt and it tightens everything up will it be safe to use it.

Right. Got the damn thing fitted but with a much shorter bolt and no spacer. Absolutely no play in the transfer pipe at all.

Will this work ok or am I likely to be stripping it down again to fix a water leak in the near future? :'(

Should be fine.

Cant work out how you ended up with a longer bolt though!

No neither can I!! I thought I had been really careful when I took everything off in making sure I knew where to put it back.

Fingers crossed then. Thanks Mark. :y
