Right problem is ive got fuel leaking out of the plastic fuel lifter seal, i believe its a breather problem unless proven other wise as each time i put pressure down own the boot fuel pisses out through the seal ive done it up tight but its still pissing out onto which was the road now a bucket

breather is just at back of tank just off centre. think you going to need a new pump tank seal or the metal part of the top of the tank ie bit you screw down, may be badly pitted with rust.

Ive just ordered a new metal part of the sender unit does anyone know of a decent place to get a new seal (the Black One)??

Mine leaked once, just after I had cleaned out the swirl pot. I hadn't got the rubber seal in quite right, I think you are in with a good chance of sealing it if you have another go, I know it's not easy though.

Right Agemo im gunna take your word for it and use some fuel up for abit then this weekend ill do it properly take fuel lines off give it a good clean up and try again, is it worth putting any sealant on the seal (sounds weird) when re-assembling

No sealant required, if you get it right you won't need sealant, & if you get it wrong, the best sealant in the world won't make it Diesel-tight. You need the right rubber seal, the petrol ones are as different size if memory serves.
