Hmm, he seems to be ignoring the VCU.
Very strange transmission issue

Transfer box output shaft should turn through 25 to 30 degrees in one minute with 20 Nm of torque applied from memory.
Note modified instructions. Me memory is knackered obviously.

Thanks wammers thats what I wanted to know. I was not ignoring the VCU, more concentrating on the job in hand. The diff was not connected to the transfer box so obviously there was another problem; which turned out to be the pinion bearing. (thanks again to wammers for suggesting I check it).
The reason for failure may well be the VCU. If not then it was the lack of oil. Ether way the next job is to check the VCU and source some oil seals that actually fit.
One more thing though; are all models supposed to have a mass damper on the front? Mine doesn't have one.

VCU will not cause the pinion bearings to seize. May cause a half shaft to fail or the planet gears to fail, but can't really cause the bearings to seize. Should have a mass damper bolted to diff if it's an automatic.

Are you on drugs? That's a bit like saying a cloud over Benidorm caused it to snow in Glasgow.
