Good point, I was assuming from your original post that you where talking about oil supply/drain hoses.

I think this may have been the cause.

Thanks

Sounds like the workshop will be up for the cost of a new engine. Was it a dealer or independent that did the work?

If you end up with any pics it would be good to see them.

Best of luck getting it sorted out, hopefully there wont be any hassles.

Let us know how you go.

More just the pain of seeing a diesel revving its absolute guts out. That engine certainly woke up with a bang after 30 years.

I'd be so glad I witnessed it and did not just get a new turbo or other quick fix if the damage was isolated.

Sorry about the swear words in the video. Had to watch it again to see what I missed. Just a couple of good old boys. Pretty tame........................................
