In the hopes of explaining this a bit better, I have "drawn" the pic below:-
Bear in mind it was a 30 second effort !!
And, @border - that "T" reg D1 you have bought appears to be a special edition, and an auto too - which means it'll be EDC - thus if you break it, certain of the fuel system parts have some value - or perhaps better - restore it, if it is a Cairgorm or Landmark etc .... ( more work I know 
)
I might be interested in some bits if you do break it

So if I try and wangle it in up and over on an angle type way, . This is going to be fun, think I'll nip along the Burger Van before I try for a bacon sandwich and cuppa to syke myself up

Yep, get me a bacon butty while you're there
.... The air cleaner being mounted to the cyl head bolts I understand ..... but having the bracket such that it isn't detachable from them without taking the head orft, is the daftest design ever
....You should be able to feel the cam lobe with your finger ( careful now
) .... and the LP might not fit flush until the bolts are tightened because of the position of the lobe...I thought he would remove the engine & put it in a LR
Being EDC and auto - it's a lot of work to convert it to manual - he should sell it me, so I can save it

Good idea Mate will do that before fitting one back in
When you do replace it put it in high and lower it as you push it in that way you should sit right.

I remember the guy telling me about this a while back, he had just had the head skimmed with new bolts ect, I don't know what's involved in that job but it's all been done, just over 80000 miles. Hes done most of the welding, just needs rear boot floor and couple ok other little bits, think he was skint so we were lucky to get it really. You wouldn't believe it the main reason my son bought it for, but I'm glad he got this oneAnd, @border - that "T" reg D1 you have bought appears to be a special edition, and an auto too - which means it'll be EDC - thus if you break it, certain of the fuel system parts have some value - or perhaps better - restore it, if it is a Cairgorm or Landmark etc ....

Right might have a little bit of progress. Fitted LP back on, couldn't feel anything on primer at first but hand turned crank till I could,. Then attached pipe to cup of fuel and was able to prime it through pump so think I'll get it all Back together and TRY AGAIN

Yes, 100% - so if it won't do this, you have air getting in before the LP
How much fuel is in the tank ?
