its a small unit just above the oil filter held in by 2 x 10mm (M6) bolts

When I fit a new one I will look at getting the old one modified, I have a motorsport engineer next door.

This rattle occurs usually when the engine is warm, on start up, and it stops after a few seconds.

I have emailed the guy, asking how much discount he "might" offer, and the possiblity of posting them in "one" box.

Also im sure from the states, if you send something off as a "gift" you dont get hit by HM Revenue & Customs tax as much.
