Thought I'd just finish this thread off with a few of the details.
Bought the pump from these guys.
http://www.mansfieldmotorsltd.co.uk/shop/e.../3/1996/8/24/36
Mansfield charged me 611 pounds, their website isn't up to date on price.
I tried the two places below, both had better prices, but neither could help in the time that I needed the pump in.

If you're feeling real brave try this link - http://www.vepump.cn Chinese VE pump maker.
I got caught with import charges. Apparently there's a magic $ number under which customs doesn't bother to chase the duty - too much overhead for the amount of duty. I don't know if this is true, but may be worth a try. Also make sure the invoice is clearly marked 4wd part, mine wasn't, although the box was taped with 4x4 tape and the company is mansfield 4x4. If it is a part for a 4wd it only attracts 5% rather than 10% import duty. Then GST on the top of that.
Since it's an export from UK there is no VAT, so in some cases price will be down by 17.5%. Freight was 80 pounds with Fedex, I worked out it would be 120 pounds with Royal Mail, both under a week delivery.
All up just under $2000.
Karcraft quoted $2500 for a new pump non-LR or $4500 for LR. Other thing with Karcraft was that they didn't have a pump in stock and wouldn't have one for four weeks.
That Chinese site also seems to supply parts for the pumps also. I found the Chinese site using the Bosch numbers on the pump, not the LR number.

Other thing I've noticed since the 130 came home is a bit of a drop in power. I don't know if it's because I spent a week charging about in the Subaru, or if the old pump had all of the fancy tuning stuff done and the new one doesn't.
Now I'm tossing up whether I should get it tuned or enjoy cheaper diesel bills.

could be the pump timing as well. The difference between the locking pin (drill bit shank) tight in the groove and hole, or absolutely centred and falling in is noticeable in the 'go' department.
