As @julianf above, faulty hazard switch often causes issues. Cheap enough to swap out.

Got the rear wiper working again, shaft was seized in its tube. There looks to be some sort of plastic liner in it that had expanded so ran a slightly bigger drill through it. Nice and free now with wiper whizzing back and fore. Only issue to open unit one has to drill out the rivet pins...

Most rivet tools will do the 3 most common sizes. I would do as @miktdish above and drill out for the size you have.

OR it is possible to fit a series 3 box with the bell housing/clutch unit from a 2/2a box

There is no such thing as 2wd low ratio, it is only 4wd in low ratio. Sometimes if you jack a vehicle to check for drive the broken ends of a half shaft will still bind enough to spin an unloaded wheel.

Right bag of bits there, can see remains of 3/4 gear detent springs, possible remains of bearing cage. The goldy sheen will have come from damaged syncro cones. Steamwally has some good videos on the you tube of LT 76 series gearbox overhaul.

What wheelbase?

Mineral.

Rat's got that wrong, Tractor super universal is what I use a 15/40 oil.

10/40 mineral is what I use, the same as my old tractors get.

Fuel filter seal is another spot where air can get in causing a drain back.

So that's what it look's like in there :D

Ask again.

Bell housing to clutch housing no. Just replaced my bellhousing onto gear box and there was a paper gasket for it in the gasket set.

Have a look on Ebay, couple for sale and some new Series 3 Defender one's for about 250 beer tokens
