You took advice from an American mechanic about an Aussie based Landrover? Hope he is a LR specialist.
Nothing against American mechanics, but their exposure to Landrovers of any description, particularly pre-Disco 2, ones, would be sketchy at best.
I live in SEQld too, (Warwick, actually, where it can get rather chilly) and haven't had any problems with eliminating heat risers in more than 30 years.
Actually, in warmer climates, heat risers cause a loss of power (small, but the old 2.25 doesn't have a lot to begin with.)
