Yes, I bought those at the same time. However, I hadn't replaced them or the cover gaskets as they don't appear to be leaking. I wish I could find the oil leaks! I've looked with an inspection cameras and taken video with my iPhone on a selfie stick. These M62 engines seem to leak more than any Rover engine I've had! Crying or Very sad

I did the PCV hoses late last year. The short one on the cyclone had rotted away. It's an absolute mongrel to replace. Ron B. VK2OTC

Oil leak on mine began (or became apparent) after a thorough engine cleaning and degreasing.
Trust me, I know how it is, hunting down leaks with mirrors, cellphones torches, you name it Laughing
As for the PCV hoses, they were all done along with the valley pan !!! Rolling with laughter
The car had been laid up for five years and they had just done the bare minimum including MOT for it to be sold. I bought it on condition and after a cross check with local dealership who confirmed they had been taking care of the car in the past. What sealed the deal was the new gearbox fitted back in late 2010.
Apart from a radiator, hoses and rubber gaskets, there has been no serious issue so far...

So here we are, covers fitted with their new gaskets and grommets.
Did an oil change, changed yet another, the last, vacuum hose, adjusted handbrake and fitted a replacement headlamp wiper pump.
The latter was a real pita to get to and getting the arch liner back properly.
Still need a pair of wiper caps though and they seem to be scarcer than hen's teeth. Big Cry

Thank you, Pete. Bringing the old lady back in shape is really rewarding.
Tuesday going for a window tint. The weather is getting warmer every day and it's becoming sort of a necessity on a black car.
