Thank you again chaps. All really good ideas and advice. I'll let you know how i get on in due course.
I found the kit I bought. It was a rebuild kit for the injectors plus the hoses and clamps, Kit 31 on their website. Cost me 65.60 Pounds including shipping about three years ago. I did it because the 1988 Range Rover I bought hadn't run in around 10 years. All went in very easily.

Hope this helps you.

Just an update - as per Richard's suggestion (thanks again Richard) , I have ordered Kit 31 from Mr Injector-UK. Their correspondence has been fantastic so am looking forward to receiving the kit soon. I attach a couple of photos here of what the kit contains in case others are contemplating injector work. Just to reiterate -my vehicle is an '88 and uses Bosch injectors - part no. 0280 150 105. One of my hoses (a short one from the rail to the injector itself) has deteriorated so badly that fuel is spraying out sideways over the rest of the motor. On closer inspection I see other hoses have exterior cracks so can't be much longer for this world. While i'm waiting for the kit to arrive, I guess i now need to read up on how i remove all the plenum and associated rubbish to get access to the fuel rail.....yuk...no doubt a bitch of a job!Kit 31 contents v2.jpgKit 31 contents.jpg
While you have the plenum off (which isn't so bad a job, think of it as an opportunity to make everything nice and clean), consider replacing the heater bulkhead hoses, so much easier when you can get to them - and the two small hoses that sit behind the distributor that aren't easy to get to normally. Spray Hylomar is good for plenum reassembly on the faces. Also with the plenum off, clean out all the inlets and clean/replace any associated small hoses that come from the oil breather / pcv, they get gummed up which can affect idle etc.
