davidlandy:
you may not loose water or oil to indicate the gasket has gone - it can blow straight out without touching the oil and water holes.

I think that  Frankieboys went like this.

I have now spoken to the fella that rebuilt the top on the engine following belt poppage and he, like others here reckons on valve stem caps. Mr Haynes isnt awfully helpful. Do I need a Valve spring compressor and how do you fit them? Back off the rocker arm and slip them over the stem jobber? No idea really. Any suggestions much appreciated. My mood may be lifting, aah the joy of optimism.

timbob

Timbob:
Really? Thats awfully kind of you. Do you think I should get me some of those valve stem caps tomorrow, assuming the landrover dealer stocks them?Should I get a compressor?
Thanks again Mr Team
