It was a bit of a bugger to do, but Daz worked his wonder and looked effortless 

Key was getting down to the oil cooler and be able to remove easily.  Plenum and Sandwich plate came off and oil cooler pipes (both ends  which was a bugger at the oil filter end ).  Cooler and it's plate was removed and plate and block cleaned like a new pin and re-sealed with appropriate sealant.  Oil cooler was in fine condition so reused it but we used new Dowty washers for the oil pipes as not want them leaking oil  (and don't bend pipes when moving).  Once off it had cooled for a few hours and we could see where it was then starting to track down the sides of the cooler plate, onto the block on both sides of the V and towards the back of the engine and then down each side of bell housing.

I would not have done it, as rather a lot of stuff came off before started putting things back  but luckily Daz had done a few before  and was using "the force" Luke
