Thanks guys. Just looking. I think I need a special thin spanner to remove the fan... is there a cheap one somewhere or do I need a full price tool?

You also need a tool to stop the fan rotating while undoing the left hand thread, Advancedfactors sell them It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

And make sure that you torque the pump bolts to the correct setting. I believe 27mn., but do check as there have been examples of overtightening resulting in casting failure, usually after cam belt replacement. You must fit a new oil crankshaft seal DRY and leave for apprx. 4 hours before restarting engine. Also fit a new crankshaft pully bolt.

Later pumps have reinforced casting.
and they also uprated to thicker "star" to increase oil pressure. Most recent pump number is LR123716.
