hi, thanks that was quick, i'm not the only one with to much time on his hands at work then,  what about this bolt ??,  is it the oil pump bolt??,      if so do i need to get this checked asap??,

thanks john.

Hightower:
John,

Yes it is the oil pump bolt.  Some (and LR can't say how many) did not have sufficient, or any, threadlok applied when they were fitted.  End result is that they work loose and the sprocket that drives the oil pump comes off etc.
If you are at all worried about it then I would have to say (as I'm now going through the hassle of getting it sorted), with hindsight, that it would have been worth the couple hours labour to get it checked.
