is there a rubber thing missing here? I seem to remember a "rubber sock" thing over the end of the heater blower on previous defenders? Could be wrong

I think it is, on mine there is just the heater fan and then the wing void.

I think I'll just chuck some underseal in there and leave it as it is it seems to work ok

Yes it's the plastic/rubber bit that attached on the front of the blower that's missing. No idea what it's meant to do but it seems to work ok without it

I can only guess that 16 guides the air through into the heater and 13 takes water out?

Thanks Mojo, I might ask how much the parts would be but suspect it will be more than I want to pay! Would be a fiddly job too.

I've no idea why LR designed it like some sort of reservoir, no. 15 is the valve to let water out. A new unit would be hideously expensive, I'd imagine. Best bet would be to try a breakers, Newbury 4x4 day is at the beginning of October and I can almost guarantee you'll pick a cheap one up there.
You could get by with some flexible ducting to route from the impeller to the grille, you do need to reach the fresh air or you'll be breathing in dirty engine bay air!

I think this is the big bit (16) and I'm sure you could cobble the rest together on the same site!
