Still not found any info on belt tensioner and engine mount bolts? what do they do exactly and do I need them replaced?

Was also told to replace  Aux Drive Belt - is this needed / required?

Need to buy these tomorrow so quick replies with solid info would be appreciated, tah

Make sure you buy a full cambelt kit, this will include the tensioners. As for the engine mount bolts, I wouldn't bother personally.

The dump valve is ready to be fitted, has all springs and shimsetc. do I need any uprated hoses or pipes?

if none of your pipes have been replaced, buy some 3mm silicone vac hose because the old stuff will be perished and will just crumble when you take it off! replace the pipe to the FPR while youre at it.

As Jamie said, 3mm ID silicone hose is what you want.

Get some more pics with the engine cover off, I'd ditch that dump valve though!!
