Give these guys a ring they can swap gen one for your knackard one via post last time I paid about £70 odd quid!
I'm in London though but they do courier service!

Thanks bud - one thing I will say is, if you do get an exchange unit make sure that they give you one which has this terminal for the 5th injector or you will have the issue I have with my newly acquired car which has a stoooopid switch on the dash which activtes the injector manually!!! Hence why I need the part number so I can get a 'proper' one!

Got mine off that "auction site". Think I payed £60--£70. Came reconned and looked new. I think it may have been this one. Give them a call to confirm.

If it wasnt so minging I would have got you the part number but I cant decipher it beneath the crud.

When daylight reappears ill have another crack at it, there are a few on e bay and there are companies that will do refurbed ones on the net!
